News: Lynden On-Line presents classic drama

The mood was decidedly retro for our January meeting.

We rummaged around in the archives and unearthed some classic radio drama.

Our first reading was 'A Scandal in Bohemia'- a Sherlock Holmes adaptation which was broadcast in America on 10 December 1945. It was a lot of fun and showcased some very dodgy cockney accents.

Our second reading was a supernatural thriller: 'Dweller in the Darkness' which was broadcast by the BBC on 14 April 1925.

One of the scripts we looked at but decided to save for another day was:'The War of the Worlds'. Watch out for this historic radio drama at a later date.
