3:00 Radio Drama -A double-billing.
A story of a young New Zealand woman journeys with her friend, a sick Australian swami, back to his family on a huge outback cattle station. And we return to the office of The Sunday Chronical, where the editor of the newspaper's Value Magazine consumer supplement deals with his staff, his hen-pecked managing editor, a range of rip-off artists and the gullible consumers who allow themselves to be ripped off.
The Arts on Sunday is literally radio with pictures ... and theatre, film, comedy, books, dance, entertainment and music – all the things, in other words, that make life worth living.
