| Any suggestions who sells these - I've had wonderful dealings with Jerry, Steve, Ed, and Ted, but I've exhausted their lists. Jim |

I have found many of the Mind's Eye, INC. BBC Radio Drama Collection at Half Price Books and Records here in the Dallas area. If you are does not have a Half Price try looking under Minds Eye or BBC at Amazon.com or check "Minds Eye" on Yahoo!
I have some tapes called "Double Bill" which features two radio dramas from the same playwright. My favorite is Terrence Rattigan's The Browning Version...It cemters around a stuffy old professor who is pushed aside by a younger and better looking classics scholar. The Professor is all "Gildersleeve" in his bombastic manner; yet he is very beloved by his students. However, his shrew of a wife wants to dump him for another professor who, after watching how she treats her husband during the tough times, walks out on her. In the end the old Professor makes his wife understand that she is no prize and, since the board of trustees won't grant his pension, he will set the record straight at the school's commencement with all the parents and students present. That is enough to have the board reconsider his pension and his wife to leave him in total disgust. Thus he his free to enjoy his last years with a new school of his choice and possibly find a real love. |

| Have you had the opportunity to listening to BBC Radio 4 & BBC 7 off the internet with their live streams or listen again options. Quality has been amazingly good. Great source for a lot of BBC drama, comedy, etc... |
