Of the original medieval Passion play nothing remains. The play was rewritten and has since been several times radically adapted-in the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth centuries. The text now in use is the mid-nineteenth century Daisenberger version; Dedler's music is in a ' church style ' older than that.
Mr. Cope, who returned recently from seeing the play, believes that only a fresh approach to the production and a new text reflecting the conclusions of modern Biblical scholarship could make the play relevant, devotionally, for a contemporary audience.

The first of two programmes recorded in Majorca by D. G. Bridson
In these recordings, the talk ranges from a consideration by Robert Graves of his own work as a poet and novelist to opinions on myth and magic, folk song, the ballads, earlier literature, and the work of his contemporaries. The broadcasts also include readings from his latest poems, many still uncollected.

Recently B. C. Brookes pointed out an apparently fundamental limitation to the interpretation of science to the non-scientist. In this discussion his views are challenged by two speakers also actively concerned with this problem.
