by Jane Austen adapted for radio in five episodes by DENIS CONSTANDUROS
Isobella's engagement to James Morland gave his sister Catherine much pleasure: but the attentions of Isobella's brother John did not. In addition her friend's attitude towards Captain Tilney both puzzled and disturbed Catherine. But all other thoughts were set aside when she received an invitation to Northanger Abbey-and from General Tilney himself. 4: Horrid Suspicions
Produced by BRANDON ACTON BOND Broadcast in September 1962
Repeated on Tuesday at 3.0
