by Jane Austen adapted for radio in five episodes by DENIS CONSTANDUROS
A misunderstanding over a meeting with Mr. Tilney and his sister, largely the fault of the bumptious and insufferable Mr. Thorpe, gave Catherine the uncomfortable feeling that she had given offence where she could least have wished; and a cool meeting with Mr. Tilney confirmed it. But an invitation to dinner from their father, the impressive General Tilney, though alarming, certainly helped to restore her spirits. 3: Catherine receives an invitation
