"MAN AT NIGHT"
Sir-The BBC production Man at Night, broadcast in ZB Sunday Showcase on June 29, was in my opinion the most gripping radio drama that has been heard in this country for several years. It was entertainment on a plane that is seldom reached by our home-grown Showcase items, good though they are. The play commanded attention from start to finish, and built up terrific tension; the plot was ideally suited to the radio medium, and this was, I think, the reason for the powerful impact that it imparted. Let us have more of this sort of entertainment; it is most refreshing to be able to listen to something that makes you think and feel, instead ef leaving you in emotional and intellectual
doldrums.
