Details

Leap in the Universe is the most successful science fiction drama series that was broadcast on Dutch radio in the 1950s. The three-series serial was based on the BBC radio play Journey into space by the English writer Charles Chilton. In the Netherlands it was translated by Eddy Franquinet aka P.R.O. Peller and directed by Léon Povel, broadcast from 1955. Since then, the series has been repeated several times. Publisher Rubinstein previously published the second series, entitled: The Martian Mystery. We are writing April 15, 1972. The expedition fleet led by Captain Jeff Morgan, after an adventurous visit to Mars, rushes back to Earth. The crew is dismayed to discover that evil plans are being made on Mars for an invasion of Earth. This by a so-called "fifth column", consisting of Martians and "adapted" captured people. During a stopover on the moon, the crew reports, but she is not believed. There is no other option than to travel to Mars again with a fleet. What follows are chilling adventures. Will Jeff Morgan and his men manage to save Earth from destruction? "Fifty years after the first broadcast, this radio play still looks fresh. The build-up of tension, the experience of the actors, all belonging to the top at the time, and the sound effects make listening to it a great pleasure. "Narrator: Various readers Media: 10 CD audiobook
