Pursuit - 19 Episodes of the Old Time Radio program


(3.3 stars; 3 reviews)

This upload contains 19 episodes of the old time radio crime drama, Pursuit. Produced by Mr. Radio, Elliott Lewis, Pursuit followed the investigations of Scotland Yard inspector Peter Black. The show aired over various short runs from 1949-1952, for a total of 64 episodes. Inspector Black was portrayed by three actors during the run: Ted de Corsia, John Dehner and Ben Wright.  The dates, episode numbers and titles are believed to be correct based on available information, but any corrections are welcome.   Disclaimer: By uploading these files, I make no claim to ownership or copyright. These recordings have been acquired from publicly available sources on the Internet, and my goal has been to put together a collection of every available episode where possible. I will add to these collections if I discover new episodes or if any new episodes become available. Additionally, while I tried to put together a collection that contains the best version of each episode that I could, there may be better copies of some recordings available from collectors and dealers, and I encourage you to reach out to them if you are so inclined. We OTR enthusiasts owe a huge debt to those who have worked tirelessly to discover, acquire and preserve these recordings. My role here has been to organize the files I have, verify the dates, episode numbers and titles as best I could from available sources, and correct and rename the files accordingly. My goal is to ensure these excellent artistic expressions of our past are preserved for this and all future generations, and I hope that by uploading all of my files here in a uniform and organized system, they will be easily accessible for all.

This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Wright_(English_actor) Wright was the nasty Nazi in The Sound of Music who tried to force Chris Plummer to display the swastika flag in his home, the lowly swine. Also the voice of HeyBoy, Asian stereotype on Dehner's Have Gun Will Travel. Kudos to j f yuga for posting these; I needed some new OTR! Love John Dehner's voice.

Ted de Corsia, John Dehne

Sounds good, I've always liked the 2 OTR actors above, the 3rd is unknown to me. Update. I've listened to a few, not for me, stories and American actors trying to be English doesn't work

THANK YOU
