This week we almost lost the episode. I'm thrilled to write that dropbox stores files so thank God for them. Anyhow we've added a new series of I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again this week. But we start with Navy Lark and the episode seeing Red from September 24 1967 then we listen to The Making of Music where we continue to study bethoven by looking at one of his best symphonies. Then as promised we go to April 23 1967 to see the prunes where their story this week is Knights of the Round Table perhaps a bit of Holy Grail's infancy in there. We conclude with Part 3 of Gaudy Night and this I can tell you. Lord Peter is back from Rome. Enjoy.

This episode is due in large part to German professor Margaret Dorsch of bethany College and her persistance that her German 1 class attend her Thursdaay night foreign film club during the autumn of 1991. I have no ideaa where the Frau is these days but I hope she finds this and is doing well. For if it weren't for her and John Paulsen's exhustive work on subtitles I would never have found Colnel Redl so interesting as to one day present a drama on the same subject this one thankfully in English. Work projects are slowing down so more brunch to come.
