6— ' The Hag-ridden Horse '
Music composed and conducted by Bruce Montgomery and played by the BBC West of England Light Orchestra
Produced by Owen Reed
To the highly imaginative but emotionally unstable nature of a young man like Edred Fitzpiers life in Little Hintock had virtually nothing to offer in place of the intellectual delights that he had enjoyed in the more urbane settings of his earlier years. The plodding round of a remote country doctor and the small talk of the Melbury household set a narrow pattern for his questing energy.
He must, in any case, have been attracted to the sophisticated atmosphere of Hintock House. But the fact that the ' chatelaine' of Hintock, Felice Charmond , aroused nostalgic memories of a youthful romance added an intoxicating spice of danger to his visits.
