or Historical Events As They Might Have Been
A Broadcast Revue by L. du G. of Punch
In this Novel Revue the Professor of History As It Might Have Been, arguing that historians never agree as to how anything happened or whether it actually happened at all, takes the liberty of building up new versions of important episodes in our history. The instances dealt with in the revue cover what may have happened in such notable incidents as the following:
1. Caesar's attempt to Land in Britain 2. King Alfred and the Cakes 3. Edgar and the Danes. 4. King Canute on the Seashore. 5. Henry VIII.'s Excursions into Matrimony 6. The Writing of Shakespeare's Plays
The Cast will include:
Lilian Harrison, Joyce Tremayne, Mortlake Wren, Tommy Handley, Andrew Churchman, Laurence Ireland, William MacReady
Mr. L. Du Garde Peach, to-night's representative of the 'Modern Humorists' series, is known to readers of Punch as L. du G. Some of his pleasant sketches have also been published in book form under the title of 'Angela and I,' and many listeners will have enjoyed his radio revue, 'Heterodyned History.'
OF Beethoven's ten Sonatas for Violin and Pianoforte scarcely any sustains so noble a discourse as does this, the Seventh (known as Op. 30, No. 2).
In its FIRST MOVEMENT there are. some stormy episodes and some charming melodies, but dignity is never lost in passion.
