    If you hold any episodes of this series it would be good if you could send me
    a note of what you have, off list if possible, and that way collectors  can
    build up a clearer picture of what episodes survive outside the UK.
    Cheers ! Graeme ( ORCA / UK )

    this is very sad news.
    my  love of old radio was rebooted when i read "the great radio heroes"  in
    the  early 1970's.    jim spoke for me when he wrote "some were born  for
    greatness.  I was born for 'trivia'.  yes, somewhere, there is one  grown up
    kid who never threw away a radio premium, a secret manual, a comic  book.
    me."
    thanks jim.  may God rest your precious soul.
    peace  from kathy
