The production is an innovation in Broadcast Drama: it is an attempt to give an outline of the essential narrative of Charles Kingsley's great work. The Radioviews will be linked up by short announcements giving the details of the scenes as they are reached, and of the intervening circumstances with which the Radioviews do not deal.

In addition to sound effects accompanying the transmission, a new feature will be introduced, that of having a musical background. The actors will speak through the music; and it is hoped that all our listeners will thus have a further aid to the atmosphere which we shall try to impart.
