Sword of Honour

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

by EVELYN WAUGH , dramatised in 11 parts by BARRY CAMPBELL
3: It would be a travesty to say that Guy suspected Apthorpe of lying. His claims to distinction - porpoise-skin boots, a High Church aunt in Tunbridge Wells, a friend who was on good terms with a gorilla - were not what an imposter would invent in order to impress. Yet there was about Apthorpe a sort of fundamental implausibility. with PETER BALDWIN.
ALAN DUDLEY. TONY MATTHEWS. NIGEL LAMBERT and SION PROBERT
