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.

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.

Story
Non era rimasto nulla, niente di niente. Non solo i gioielli: i ladri si erano portati via proprio tutto, forno con arrosto, moquette, abiti e persino il rotolo della carta igienica. Un appartamento completamente ripulito è quello che si trovano di fronte i signori Ransome al rientro da una serata all'opera; un riazzeramento della vita che porta l'agiato avvocato londinese e la sua pacata signora a reazioni esilaranti e diametralmente opposte. E ancora una volta Bennett si conferma maestro del comico e dell'arte del narrare.
