revives some of the outstanding broadcasts of the first full year of peace
John Snagge and Frederick Allen take you back over a year in which listeners heard the nation-wide V-Day celebrations: the opening of the Peace Conference and of U.N 0.; the closing stages of the Nuremberg trials. It was a year which saw the renewal of the traditional sporting events— the Derby, the Grand National, the Cup-Final, the Boat-Race and the Test Matches. The programme, a parade of public events, great personalities, and studio broadcasts, is compiled and produced by T. J. Waldron and R D. Smith
