The Thirties Thriller
The thrillers of the 1930s almost constitute a weather chart of the different codes of honour at work in Britain during that decade. The writer Simon Rees reflects on 30s thriller-writers, including the swashbuckling Dornford Yates , the trimming Communist C. Day Lewis, alias Nicholas Blake , and the withdrawn, often misunderstood, John Buchan.

Words and music by Edward Cowie
After the hanging of her brother Ned Kelly in 1880, Katherine (Kate) Kelly founded a travelling show which retold his story in songs and music. It was during one of her 'road shows' that a member of the audience violently accused her of amoral commercialism. Soon afterwards, Kate drowned herself in the Murray River.
