Radio broadcast relayed from BBC Birmingham in a half-hour slot in which the performance of scenes from Shakespeare follow a musical recital by the Ivanhoe Prize Quartette of Leicester.
At 22:00 the two actors once again engaged in what The Times programmes listings for the day refers to as "dramatic duologue". The latter transmission was also broadcast within a half-hour slot.
