Launching a new range of "Classic Radio Sci-Fi" releases, the renowned "Quatermass Memoirs" was first broadcast on BBC Radio 3 in 1996. It is a mix of original TV soundtrack and drama-documentary, in which Nigel Kneale reflects on the 1950s fearful atmosphere in which he wrote the classic "Quatermass" TV serials in which Raginald Tate first played the Professor. The programme mixes the factual story with a dramatic narrative, in which the now-retired Professor Quatermass (played by Nigel Kneale) reluctantly recounts his past exploits to a female journalist. This in turn is interweaved with soundtrack footage from the "Quatermass" TV dramas. The final touch is a stirring music soundtrack. Long-awaited by fans, this is another entry in BBC Audiobooks' "Classic Radio Sci-Fi" range. Other titles are "The Day of the Triffids" and "Aliens in the Mind."
