Classic Serial

Sunday 3.00-4.00pm, repeated Saturday 9.00-10.00pm

Works which have achieved classic status - or are on their way to achieving it.

Some of the serials only have one episode, and these are occasionally (and understandably) listed elsewhere as "Sunday Play" - I know I've added details, sometimes from the writers themselves, where this is the case.
Both broadcasts, the Sunday orignal and the Saturday repeat, used to be on "Listen Again", so if you timed it right you could listen to them in a row - but now it's only the original broadcast.
