Paul Halligan has been presenting Tales at Twilight here on
Claremorris Community Radio 94.6 FM for believe it or not 4 years now!
If you haven’t tuned in, it airs Saturdays at 8pm.
All your Old Time radio dramas, the show has two stories each week.
Normally this involves four different genres rotating you might get a western such as Gunsmoke or the Cisco Kid.
A spy drama from the 50s when America was terrified of the Communist threat and regularly informed the public with such series as Spy
Catcher, Cloak and Dagger and I Was A Communist For The FBI.
On sci fi week we usually hear from x-1,dimension x, or the twilight
zone and yes as you guessed the threat of alien attack is always on
the horizon.
If you’re into detective murder or mystery you can always rely on
Tales at Twilight for plenty of your favourite characters, such as
Sherlock Holmes, Harry Lime, or the police series
dragnet.
So whether you’re sitting outside at the barbeque, or lazing back on
the sofa after a hard week, why not check out the way folks were entertained by ‘the wireless’ all those years ago.
Here’s to another 200 programmes of Tales at Twilight!
