...and for anyone overseas able to vault the BBC's copyright fence.

Reverend Lionel Fanthorpe, best known today as TV presenter, motorcycling vicar and researcher into the paranormal, talks to Radio 4 about his previous career as a writer of bizarre pulp SF. With a fevered mind and an army of pseudonyms he cranked out stories at a furious rate; in one dizzying three-year spell he dashed off a novel every twelve days whilst holding down a full-time job. This lovely half-hour celebration of his peerless prose explores his technique and features tongue-in-cheek dramatisations of his greatest moments.
