The play (transmitted through the week in 5 fifteen minute episodes) uses the opening 4 bars of piano from "Another Girl's Paradise" as a scene bridge several times in each episode, along with occasional other clips (about 1 second of "Gold Dust", and a little more of Joni Mitchell's "The Circle Game" - I think). If you want to listen you have to be quick! Each episode stays on the BBC Listen Again site for only 1 week after its broadcast, when it is then replaced by the subsequent week's play - so by Tuesday, only the last 4 episodes will be available.

At last I'm connected to civilisation again! Now, there's a half finished Sunny Florida post somewhere which I really ought to get to work on... ) Pete xxxx "change, my dear" _________________________________________________________________ It's fast, it's easy and it's free.
