the abundance of jam transcripts from the 70s on this blog tells you there is absolutely nothing good on the radio this week at all - unfortunately, i've heard "taken at the flood" before and remember very well who'd dunnit. well that isn't the reason - it's just that for a change i did want the murderer to get away with it you see, and they didn't and it depresses me. and both wimsey and harriet in the sayers serial irk me tremendously. and that's all that is interesting in drama. in comedy, hancock's half hour is a quite bland, neither of the just a minutes on four or seven are particularly scintillating - good as always but not classics, the new episode of dad's army isn't till tomorrow, even the trusty brothers-in-law seem feeble this week. i don't always enjoy round the horne and i'm sorry i'll read that again, and this is one of those weeks where they aren't quite clever or silly enough. what else is there for relaxation, but reading old transcripts? oh it's so tedious!

von, though, might enjoy the fact that one of his favourites, miss smilla's feeling for snow, is on radio next week.
