Robert Barr The Dark Island
Robert Barr
The Dark Island by Robert Barr is a gripping story of espionage set in the remote, mist-veiled islands of the Outer Hebrides. The narrative follows Jim Nicholson and Bill Grant as they delve into a spy ring that stretches all the way to the Iron Curtain and beyond.
This production features a talented cast including Edward De Souza, Geoffrey Frederick, Bryden Murdoch, Rosemary Miller, Alaric Cotter, and Peter Hawkins. The islands, lonely and withdrawn, stand like a breakwater off the north-west coast of Britain, while foreign trawlers patrol the Atlantic, keeping a watchful eye on the rocket range on South Uist and other secrets.
This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.

Enjoyable period drama

This well done BBC play imparts a good impression of the Cold War spy dramas happening during that time. The story, music and sound effects easily and believably transport a listener into that time period. It was a pleasure to listen to it.
Brilliant!

As a young pup I had just discovered a new fangled gadget called the "transistor radio". I do believe it was the first thing I ever purchased by myself. The big advantage of this gadget was that you could easily sneak it into bed and listen beneath the covers when you should be asleep. And what did I listen to? THIS! That tune has stayed with me all my life. Wonderful to listen to it again. Thank you OP.
