Danger in Disguise
"\/OU know the way it is" is a favourite saying of Felix Holliday, hero of a new serial, Danger in Disguise, but for him, "the way it is" is usually most unexpected and dramatic. Danger in Disguise, written by Arthur E. Jones (below), scriptwriter at 1YA, is a mystery thriller in eight episodes, and will begin next Sunday, November 25, at 8.0 p.m., from 2ZB. Listeners have already met Felix Holliday as Johnnv Avril-it was
only when Arthur Jones started to write a book about April that he discovered an American had written several books with a hero of the same name-so Felix Holliday was born. Danger in Disguise has been produced in Wellington for the NZBS by William Austin, who also plays the part of Hollicay. Felix just can’t keep away from trouble, and in this serial he certainly has his fair share of it. It all starts quite simply, with the delivery of a letter to the wrong flat, but after that events lead swiftly to a full-scale mystery, Murder, violence and the desire for money loom large, but for all that the serial is not horrifying. Arthur Jones has treated it with a light, whimsical touch which is often reminiscent of Peter Cheyney. Others taking part in the serial are Jessie Weddell, Roy’ Leywood, Patrick Smyth, Alan Jervis, Davina Whitehouse, Stuart James, Gavin Yates, Peter Read and Harry Painter,
