The Fountain Plays - Edmund Gwenn - Suspense
The Fountain Plays deal with the fortunes and misfortunes of a middleclass Englishman. He lives on a little country estate with a cook and a manservant and in the garden a fountain. Based on the short story by Dorothy L. Sayers.
One of the premier drama programs of the Golden Age of Radio, was subtitled "radio's outstanding theater of thrills" and focused on suspense thriller-type scripts, usually featuring leading Hollywood actors of the era.
Suspense went through several major phases, characterized by different hosts, sponsors, and director/producers. Formula plot devices were followed for all but a handful of episodes: the protagonist was usually a normal person suddenly dropped into a threatening or bizarre situation; solutions were "withheld until the last possible second"; and evildoers were usually punished in the end.
