AN OLDER RADIO VERSION OF MARLOW

A radio show from a gentler era. It’s more a history piece than I expected although hard to criticise on that basis it’s of it time. Marlow is sometimes too suave and not as hard bitten as he should be. But a nice collection of stories not on audible elsewhere at the moment. The major problem is that the majority of the stories seem to have the ends missing.

Prime material for a modern update.
