This charming fantasy, first broadcast in September, 1931, is a first-class show of its kind. It tells a highly improbable story of a business man projected into fairyland in the guise of an indiarubber ball, to music of an appropriately light texture. It is in the hands of a cast well seasoned in this type of light-hearted nonsense, including Patrick Waddington, Doris Gilmore, and Bernard Ansell.
