- Updated Saturday 7th March 2009 - As of 2009 this page will be expanding to include examples of some of the radio series that I enjoy. I've started wading through my collection and more uploads will appear in time: I will also be expanding on the text. All files are in WMA format and quality reflects the age of the source material. Right: Jack Benny, genius. |

Burns and Allen Dad's Army Dark Fantasy Day of the Triffids Dimension X The Goon Show Hancock's Half Hour The Hitch-Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy The Jack Benny Show Journey Into Space The Likely Lads NBC University Theater The Saint The Sealed Book Sherlock Holmes |
| Title (in rough alphabetical order) | Comments |
| The Burns and Allen Show | George Burns and Gracie Allen. Gracie is extremely funny and this is quite a witty series. |
| Dad's Army | Radio adaptations of the BBC TV series. |
| Dark Fantasy | 1940's US anthology series |
| Day Of The Triffids | Atmospheric radio adaptation of John Wyndham's excellent novel. |
| Dimension X | It seems to me to be a radio version of 'The Twilight Zone' and is very intelligent. |
| The Goon Show | Crazy and great fun. |
| Hancock's Half Hour | My favourite radio show. It was the inclusion of Kenneth Williams that got me listening to the show in the first place but I soon came to enjoy the show in it's own right. It's so well written. |
| The Hitch-Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy | Intelligently scripted, imaginative and very funny. |
| The Jack Benny Show | Over 900 programmes were made. He makes me laugh and the rest of the cast are very well chosen. |
| Journey Into Space | This was the first sci-fi radio series I heard and it made me want to seek out more serials. It may be a cosy series but it's very atmospheric. |
| The Likely Lads | Radio adaptations of the TV series. |
| NBC University Theater | 1940s US anthology series. |
| The Saint | Modern day Robin Hood. 1940s series based on the Leslie Charteris character. Starring Vincent Price. |
| The Sealed Book | 1940s US anthology series. |
| Sherlock Holmes | The Rathbone / Bruce version. |
| 2000 Plus | 1950s US Sci-fi anthology series. |
| The Third Man | Radio spin of the successful films. Starring Orson Welles as Harry Lime. |
| X Minus One | 1950s US sci-fi anthology series. |
| OLD TIME RADIO ARCHIVE | This fantastic on-line archive contains thousands of old-time radio shows from the USA. Download, listen, enjoy. Cick on the link on the left or click here. |
