The last years of John Ruskla at Brantwood
Written and narrated by Francis Watson with 1 All I look for is light and peace. Those - unless by some strange chance of evil - are sure to me.' But in the peaceful home that he had found for himself by Coniston Water, John Ruskin went mad.
This programme is the story of a great mind in collapse, dramatised with a wealth of direct testimony that includes some of the astonishing diary-record, only recently published, made by Ruskin up to the critical moment of his first serious attack.
With the voices of JULIET COOKE , DAVID MAHLOWE and PAUL WEBSTER Producer HERBERT SMITH (Manchester)

by Maurice Cranston , Professor of Political Science at the London School of Economics. The idea of privacy is familiar; we are rightly concerned if it is threatened. But to defend it we must be sure we understand it. And here there are surprises.

1925-1974
The early death of the director John Gibson in May this year removed from the radio and television scene one of its most distinguished talents. Among the radio productions for which he would wish to be remembered is The Open Boat. first broadcast in 1964. The adapter of the story, author IAN RODGER. introduces the play with a short tribute to its producer.
10.5 The Open Boat
The short story by STEPHEN CRANE , freely adapted for radio by IAN RODGER
After the success of The Red Badge of Courage, Stephen Crane spent most of his remaining life as a war correspondent. At the end of 1896 he was sent to Florida on board The Commodore to cover a filibustering expedition to Cuba, and on New Year's Day the ship sank. The Open Boat is Stephen Crane 's re-creation of his 50-hour struggle for life in the open sea.
