The Lives of Harry Lime
Imaginative crimes and misadventures
Premiere broadcast: 20 January 2025
Season 13, Episode 01
Re-Imagined Radio samples the first and last episodes of The Lives of Harry Lime (syndicated United States broadcasts 1951-1952. Elsewhere titled The Adventures of Harry Lime).
Both episodes star Orson Welles (of "The War of the Worlds" fame) as Harry Lime and the narrator. In "Too Many Crooks" (Episode 01, 3 August 1951) Harry gets mixed up with a bank robbery attempt in Budapest where each member of the gang tries to out-double cross the other. In "Greek Meets Greek" (Episode 52, 25 July 1952) Harry, while in Greece, contends with the measles, a dead body, and a mysterious woman with a gun claiming someone is trying to kill her. Her story, however, does not make sense. From our OTR (Old Time Radio) series.
