Found by accident

I had no idea this existed:

The BBC's production of Isaac Asimov's The Foundation Trilogy

Cool. Thanks.

Thank you, and thanks to the BBC.

That's a radio adaption? I was hoping for a tv serious with the production values of Blake's Seven or early Dr. Who. Because I'm a masochist that way.

Come to think of it, Foundation has a similar intense action level as the Tripods tv series...

I recall it as being a little pedestrian and plodding, but it's nice that it's still around.

So they managed a very close adaptation of the books, then? Good for them!

Excellent. I had run out of Doctor Who to listen to.

I haven't quite run out of Doctor Who to listen to, but the Mind of Evil may just have to wait!

I remember listening to that as a teenager. Gosh, that was a long time ago.

I remember I was at university when this was first broadcast - must have been about 1972-3. Think it went out on Saturday nights.

I remember if fondly from my boarding school days. Found it again a couple years ago on usenet. As Paul says, this is nearly 40 years old.
