Good Timing
HE foresight of the Broadcasting Service in preparing a programme to commemorate the conquest of Everest before the news broke, so that it could be presented at the appropriate time,
made one of the most satisfying pieces of listening in an unusual week. Here our questions were answered, almost before we had had time to ask them, and the use of different voices-includ-ing the voice of Sir Edmund Hillary himself — gave life and colour to the programme. This was followed up most topically, whether by accident or optimistic planning, by a BBC feature Goddess Mother of the South, heard from 4YC that same night. The programme was excellent, and its timing inspired.
