Can't remember what we listened to last time in her work room, Mists of Avalon is in the back of my mind, I'm probably wrong though  

I've been listening to some old Paul Temple programmes ....takes me way back to my childhood 

Paul Temple

Francis Durbridge wrote the series  

soorry heard of Francis Durbridge but not Paul Temple

They were mostly all he wrote I think ....huge number of books 

wasn't Simon Temple - The Saint???

Yes, but he's different This was a series of books and programmes written in the 40s ....and dramatised in the 50s  and 60s
