Story
Bennett was one of several journalists to fly a night raid over Berlin in November 1943. This is the vivid testimony of an American journalist shot down over Berlin. After he was captured in Berlin, he was taken on a tour of Germany and shown what the civilian population was being subjected to. Bennett spent the rest of the war in Stalag Luft I, where he started the newspaper POW WOW, secretly read by 9,000 prisoners. Bennett's experiences led him to condemn the Allied policy of systematically bombing civilian population centers.

Story
A BBC Radio 4 full-cast production of one of the earliest plays by Alan Bennett. The 1970s are a time of change, but Labour MP George Oliver feels stuck in one place: distrusting the ‘mawkish mentality’ of the young and fearing the encroaching life of the middle-aged, with little to look forward to but the imminent end of a not-very-interesting road.

Story
Produced by Sydney Lotterby of Yes Minister and Porridge fame. Each instalment featured a mixture of sketches (some foreshadowing Bennett's subsequent television dramas, others mocking television clichés, such as documentaries about working-class Northern writers and discussion programmes featuring pretentious critics). This is a never before broadcast compilation of sketches and extracts from the TV series before the tapes where wiped.

"No sex please, we're British!" Wem diese Reaktion auf kontinentale Frivolitäten nie glaubhaft erschien, der findet hier seine Bestätigung: Alan Bennett berichtet, wie verlässliche Untertanen der Königin auf unerwarteten Gebieten zu Entdeckern werden und sich unziemlichen Gelüsten hingeben. Er beleuchtet ungeahnte dunkle Seiten im Liebesleben seiner Landsleute und belegt anschaulich, dass britische Skurrilität und lustvolle Ausschweifungen - überraschende Wendung inklusive - einander nicht ausschließen.
