'The Way of Sacrifice'
A Bible play
Written and produced by J. Stanley Pritchard

In the last story you heard how Jesus spent the beginning of the last week of his life - the triumphal entry into Jerusalem, the cleansing of the temple, and the many things that he told his disciples in parables. Today you hear about the preparation for the Last Supper, the treachery of Judas, the arrest in the garden of Gethsemane, and the way in which Peter denied his Lord.

by Charles Dickens
Adapted for radio by Giles Cooper
Produced by Charles Lefeaux

Oliver, wounded in the attempted burglary at Chertsey, is lovingly tended in Mrs. Maylie's house. He recovers slowly. Fagin, furious at the loss of the boy, plots his recapture in a conversation with Monks which is overheard by Nancy. Monks decides to go to Oliver's birthplace to find out whether any proofs of his parentage exist. When he arrives there he meets Mr. Bumble, now married to Mrs. Corney, a state which he heartily regrets. The beadle brings his wife to a disused warehouse where the locket and ring worn by Oliver's mother are sold to Monks and destroyed. Meanwhile Noah Claypole and Charlotte, having rifled the Sowerberrys' till, are on their way to London.
