🎭 SATURDAY NIGHT JUST GOT DRAMATIC 🎙️

Welcome to Saturday Night Theatre – exclusively on Brett’s Old Time Radio Show!

Hey, I’m Brett, your host, and I’m bringing back the glory days of radio drama from my studio on the misty shores of Lyme Bay, UK 🌊✨

🔥 This isn’t just a podcast—it’s a resurrection of one of the BBC’s most legendary broadcast strands: Saturday Night Theatre, a powerhouse of thrillers, comedies, crime dramas, and powerful stage adaptations that ran from 1943 to 1996 and ruled British airwaves for over 50 years.

Tonight, we’re diving headfirst into radio noir, murder mysteries, Cold War conspiracies, and forgotten gems that once captivated millions. Whether you’re a fan of true crime, classic theatre, vintage storytelling, or just want something different than Netflix reruns—this is for you.

🕰️ These 90-minute dramas were the event listening of their day—before television even existed. And now, I’m bringing them back to life.

💡 You don’t just listen. You step into another world.
