Bold Venture: 10/29/1951 - Darby and Joan Lonely Hearts, Inc

This time both Slate and Sailor are framed for separate murders. The ‘Darby and Joan’ is, appropriately enough, in reference to an old sailor’s ditty from the Revolutionary War:

“You true hearted women
wherever you be,
Pray take my advice
and be arited by me,
Be true to your sweethearts
and when they come home,
Then you’ll live as happy
as Darby and Jone”

Always remember that, since this series was syndicated, the dates are pretty approximate but they are based on the censensus of a variety of sources.

Bold Venture – Darby and Joan Lonely Hearts, Inc.

David Rose (music), Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall, Betty Lou Gerson, Nestor Paiva, Jester Hairston.

Syndicated by Fredrick Ziv.

The Lives of Harry Lime: 10/26/1951 – Every Frame Has Silver Lining

That was the shot that killed Harry Lime. He died in a sewer beneath Vienna, as those of you know who saw the movie The Third Man. Yes, that was the end of Harry Lime … but it was not the beginning. Harry Lime had many lives …and I can recount all of them. How do I know? Very simple. Because my name is Harry Lime.

Harry is given a package with $50,000 worth of opium by an old friend on the streets of Teheran.

The Lives of Harry Lime – Every Frame Has Silver Lining

Orson Welles (writer, performer), Anton Karas (zither), Harry Alan Towers (producer), Tig Roe (director).
