I have a number of recordings made off air onto cassette in 1981 of radio plays:
The Crysalids
The First Men in the Moon
A Fall of Moondust
Timeslip
The Techni-color TIme Machine
It had never occured to me that they might be missing, but I see that they don't appear to be in the BBC cataloge. Does anyone know if they are missing?
Thanks
Andrew

Hi Andrew
As a big fan of radio plays I would love to digitise these for you- I don't use any sort of compression yet try to improve on things where I can.
Lots to offer in return.
Please drop me a Private message on this Forum.
Thanks!
Richard.
PS- I can also tell you (when I get back to my list) which are missing!

Hi All,
I was also a great collector of radio plays. Many have now gone, but I did keep most of the Sci-Fi and horror ones.
I think the Crysalids has now been released commercially. I have the others as MP3 files, but they are in mono.
I also have many other plays which I offered to the Treasure Hunt but had no reply.
Time After Time [50min]
Events on Black Tor [150 min]
Dracula [50min]
Go Down In Darkness [90mins]
The Hex [50mins]
The Hornblower Story [20x30mins]
An Inspector Calls [x2 versions 1 of which is in the archives]
A Smell of Carnations [50mins]
Tremor [30 mins]
Night of the Wolf [90mins]
Modesty Blaise - Last Day in Limbo [6x30mins]
Terror [50mins]
Jogger [90mins]
Space Force [12x30mins]
Mr Wrong [50mins]
A Dream of Murder [90 mins]
Those are the ones I can remember off the top of my head, I do have a list somewhere. I've not seen any of the above listed on BBC7 so I have no idea if any are missing.
Alan

Again, would be seriously interested in doing proper restoration on these. Not surprising that you had no response from T/Hunt!
SOME of the ones you list have been found quite recently, some I'd be more interested in. Any chance of a PM and we can discuss further? Thanks, RTH.

The BBC's "Treasure Hunt" team was disbanded ages ago, so any enquiries sent to them will not now receive a reply.
You are welcome to send actual material to the Sound Archives, on cassette or reel, but they basically won't respond to any correspondence.
The address is BBC Sound Archive, PO BOX 30871, London W12 6GL
