THE SAINT WEEKEND LINE UP CONFIRMED

This weekend - well Sat and Sun - is the Saint Weekend on The Archive. The full confirmed features are:

Interview with Ian Dickerson of the Saint Club - Saint buff and close friend of the late Leslie Charteris.

Cullen Gallagher reviews a live Saint drama that he recently saw performed at New York's Partners And Crime Bookshop.

"On the first Saturday of every month, New York City’s great mystery bookstore Partners and Crime converts its backroom into an old-fashioned radio studio for W-WOW! Radio Mystery Hour. A long-standing tradition at the bookstore, W-WOW consists of local actors (some of whom even work for the bookstore) who perform vintage radio scripts just as they would have on the air originally, complete with commercials, live music and sound effects."
