The Girl Who Didn't Want To Be
SANWAL
Saturday-Night Theatre: The Girl Who Didn't Want To Be Sat 26th Jan 1980, 20:30 on BBC Radio 4 FM A serious comedy for radio by Frederick Bradnum. "Do you know about the crowns? Virgin crowns. Unique to this church, you know. If a person is born, baptised and dies in the parish, above the age of puberty, and is a virgin, then the next of kin ask for a virgin crown. There is a sort of calling of the banns, so that if anyone wants to object they can." When Maggie Bell died, no one did actually object, though there were several who should have done. But Maggie herself objects quite strongly. Technical presentation by Jock Farrell, assisted by David Hitchinson.
