Ed Lindsay hates the television. He prefers to escape into the past with the help of his beloved radio set. 

Stars Stan Freberg. With Ann Whitney, David Darlowe, Ellie Weingardt and Bernie Landis.

Narrator: Stacy Keach.

Adapted by Dennis Etchison and written by Charles Beaumont from a story by Oceo Ritch.
  
Originally a cult sci-fi and horror TV series created by Rod Serling and broadcast in the USA on CBS from 1959 to 1964, The Twilight Zone was first adapted by American producer Carl Amari in 2002 as a 40-minute radio drama series.

Rod Serling had managed to electrify the new medium of television - so armed with a licence from  CBS and the Serling estate, Amari's slick adaptions are based on the original TV scripts.

Actor Stacy Keach (best known here as TV detective Mike Hammer) takes Serling's original role as narrator - with a full cast, music and sound effects.

Directed and produced by Carl Amari for Falcon Picture Group.
