The Vale Of Darkness: Programme Guide.

A rescue mission moves through a landscape of wartime danger and uncertain loyalties. The Vale of Darkness follows escapees and the people trying to bring them out of occupied Yugoslavia.

Broadcast history.

The serial is catalogued within South African radio drama. Its Second World War setting describes the fiction, not a verified wartime production date; the exact original transmission period remains unknown in the consulted sources.

Cast and creative team.

A secure writer, director and full actor roster is not established for these transfers and remains unassigned. Regional collection identity is retained without inventing a production company from a similarly titled drama.

Where to begin.

Begin the serial: Episode 01 · Continue: Episode 02

These available recordings offer an introduction to this collection. Their current publication dates are separate from historical broadcast dates.

An interesting detail.

The numbered chapters carry a continuing story. Generic Episode labels make sequence more useful than upload recency when choosing what to hear next.

Listening appeal.

Begin with Episode 01, then Episode 02, and follow the numbers through the collection. Episode 29 is a late development, despite appearing near the top of the current listing.

Collection and date notes.

HRV lists 30 public recordings. The thirty records match the catalogued selection; complete audio continuity and original company credits are not certified. Current podcast dates describe later archive publication, separately from original broadcast dates.
