Description
Douglas Kelly stars as "Dick Barton – Special Agent" in a thrilling adventure for radio’s classic hero.
The adventures of special agent Dick Barton and his friends Jock and Snowey originally ran on BBC Radio between 1946 and 1951. Set in an exciting world of criminal masterminds, espionage and adventure, the series was essential listening for an entire generation.
Sadly, very few of the BBC’s original recordings still survive—but in 1949 a number of early Barton tales were re–recorded for transmission overseas. Starring Douglas Kelly, these re–stagings found new audiences in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. Over 300 of these international recordings were rediscovered in the National Film and Sound Archive of Australia in 2009—allowing listeners finally to relive the escapades of the great Dick Barton.
In this episode: While diving for treasure in the Pacific Ocean, Dick discovers a secret Nazi organisation on the nearby Black Panther Island. Can he defeat the sinister Carl Von Reinitz?
