45 minute BBC Radio 7 play: *Only A Matter Of Time*.

When time was standardized in the 19th century, not everyone was convinced
by the idea.  "In the 1840's, Wales is on the brink of the Industrial
Revolution but not yet ready to embrace the impact of time standardization
with the arrival of Brunel's railway from London.   An Englishman arrives
and comes across a local man. They exchange views on the pros and cons of
human progress."   All they need to do is adopt "London time"!

It will be playing Thursday, Sept. 10 at 6:15am Eastern Daylight Time -
repeating at 4:15pm EDT and 9:15pm EDT.  Obviously, if you're not in the
Eastern Time Zone, you need to make an adjustment to those times.
At those times it can be heard online at :

Many of the BBC7 programs can be listened to at this site at any time for 7
days after their initial airing.  Whether or not this play will fall into
that category is unknown at the moment.
