Lit.: anonym: The Yellow Iris (radio drama). In web Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, b. d. (článek). – Cit.: The Yellow Iris is a radio play written by Agatha Christie and broadcast on the BBC National Programme on Tuesday 2 November 1937 at 8.00pm. The one-hour program was broadcast again two days later, this time on the BBC Regional Programme at 9.00pm.

The script was based on the short story, Yellow Iris, which had been published in issue 559 of the Strand Magazine in July of the same year. The main part of the story takes place in a London restaurant and the play was unusual in that the producer, Douglas Moodie, interspersed the action with the performances of the cabaret artistes who were supposedly on the bill at the restaurant.

The cabaret artistes were compered by Cyril Fletcher, later famous for his appearances on the television consumer programme That’s Life!. The artistes were Hugh French, the singer Janet Lind, „The Three Admirals“ vocal group and Inga Anderson. (more…)

Lit.: anonym: UN TEMPS DE COCHON. In web RTS, prosinec 2018 (článek + nahrávka k poslechu). – Cit.:  En 1939, devant l’avancée des troupes franquistes, ce sont des centaines de milliers d’espagnols et catalans, républicains ou non, qui franchissent la frontière des Pyrénées pour venir se réfugier en France. Cette retraite désespérée et forcée, qu’on appelle „a Retirada Mercedes, Floréal, et Joaquim l’ont vécu et sont arrivés finalement dans le Tarn et Garonne. Joachim a été enfermé dans le camp de concentration de Septfonds, qui risque aujourd’hui d’être transformé en porcherie industrielle. Un symbole insupportable pour les exilés espagnols et leurs descendants qui rappellent à tous la mémoire douloureuse de ces lieux. (more…)
