A New Comedy in One Act by HENRY ARTHUR JONES
Characters, in order of speaking :
Had it not been for the eleventh-hour activities of his friends, Minnie and Fred Braey , Lawrence Scobell would have sailed away to
South America without even bidding Patty Hanslope good-bye. However, a telegram brings her to Varley's Hotel, Southampton, where Minnie and Fred wait for her in a private sitting-room.
'SHADOWS '
A Radio Scene in One Act by VALERIE HARWOOD
This episode strikes a new vein in Radio
Drama. It is not dialogue which you will hear, but rather the thoughts, made audible, of the girl who is actually the only character in the scene.
Imagine that you are the invisible observer of this dramatic incident, which takes place in a small Chelsea studio, the home of an unsuccessful and poverty-stricken painter.

Obviously, therefore, ho knows how it is done.
