A short story by C. B. Gilford
Dramatised for broadcasting by Wilfrid Grantham
Produced by Archie Campbell
' Wouldn't it be lovely to see a bit of life for once, with nice things to eat and a bed you could really sleep in? ' So mused Mrs. Owen alone in her dingy bed-sitting room with its broken-down furniture and faded curtains. How the old lady realised her ' glorious hour' is the little secret behind tonight's play.
