02 November 1954
Malcolm Muggeridge quizzes Somerset Maugham on his top ten novels.
W Somerset Maugham has written a book about his favourite novels. In this interview, Malcolm Muggeridge questions him about his choices, beginning with one of the authors who didn't make it into his top ten. In selecting his personal favourites, and with some provocation from Muggeridge, Maugham reveals something of his own philosophy on the character of a good novelist.
Please note, the original recording includes a brief dip in sound quality during this interview.
The book under discussion in this programme was published under the title 'Somerset Maugham and the Greatest Novels'. Later editions were released as 'Ten Novels and Their Authors'.

1912-a-tour-of-the-titanic-probably
A short film which appears to show the interior and deck of the Titanic only minutes prior to its ill-fated voyage in April 1912. Included in the footage is Captain E.J. Smith apparently inspecting the ship just 10 minutes prior to departure, various deck promenades, and the actual leaving of the ship. However it is a sneaky bit of sleight of hand by the newsreel company, splicing together footage from other ships (mostly the Titanic’s ‘sister’ ship The Olympic). Notice the scratched out name plates on the frames which appear as floating white marks in the film.
