Slave of the Bottle
AM always thankful for 4YA’s weekly preview of programmes, although it is a tantalising session which uses the "continued-in-our-next" technique with effective results, Hearing a bit of C. Gordon Glover’s play At Your Service in this preliminary session, I could hardly wait till the scheduled time to discover what really happened to the hero. He had been left by the "trailer" in a terrific quandary which concerned his lady friend and a charming modern djinn with an ability for getting.in and out of bottles equalled only by his success with the womenfolk. It would be a pity to tell listeners more, except to add that the NZBS cast makes an extremely gay and witty affair of it all, and that !° the unexpectedly happy ending is in the
best Jorkens manner,
