I love this stuff, you're doing a grand job! Thank you for the time you put in, we are lucky to have people like you who know how to share things like this. Thanks again
Cribb was played by Alan Dobie . One of that generation of great theatre trained actors who appeared on our TV screens all through the 70s - 2000s. Too many to name and sadly so many have passed away .! Impossible to replace....
Yes I saw it too ! GREAT SERIES it was ! With William Simmson I think his name was , who later became the great constable in "Heartbeat" ! Now dead allas R.I.P.
Thank you for commenting. yes the intro is computer generated from text to speech. (i typed it and the computer said it) Rest assured, the rest of the production are real voices by real actors and actresses. I have only just started this channel and needed a bit of help from the robots. As soon as my Microphone arrives in the post the introductions will be presented by a human. a.k.a. me. I hope that this doesn't effect your listening enjoyment. I hope to bring you and all of the other listeners, all of the classic radio dramas over the last decades thanks once again for commenting, its people like you who can help make this the perfect channel for original British radio plays.
@@stevec2993Things annoy people. I'm sure that there are things that annoy you that don't affect me. In this instance, someone raised the issue and I added my 2 cents worth to give feedback to the content creator. I always prefer a real person's voice to a computer, and in this video, the computer voice was more inauthentic and artificial than most.
If you insist on having a dreadful intro and outro, at least ensure that they are spliced in correctly without chopping them off mid word. IMO they are superfluous. But I do enjoy the content so, thank you for that :)
Im really sorry Chris. your right, i have only just noticed that the intros cut out sometimes. it was a rendering issue where the software couldn't catch up with the audio. thanks for highlighting this. i hope it hasn't spoiled the main content. i have just switched software regarding the audio so hopefully it will fix it. as for the dreadful intro/outro ....i will get there in the end.
This faux way of speach is totally wrong. The Victorians were almost conteperry with the way we converse today. Oh, blimey governor! Luv a duck, ect is totally rubbish. My own grandparents were born in the 1880s and spoke exactly the same as I do today. HOLLYWOOD has alot to do with this nonsense. To think that melodramatic ways of speaking were the norm is just plane silly. Cor blimey me!
London has many different dialects, for example those in the East End spoke (& speak) quite differently from those in South London. I agree that the accents used to pass as "working class British" in Hollywood films are lamentable, especially the old ones. Allowance also has to be made with how language changes over time, so that some expressions and words used in the Victorian era aren't familiar to us today, so not really contemporary.
