Bureau of Visual Records

    And here is a personal message for Number 6, it is from 113, it reads warmest greetings on your birthday, may the sun shine on you today and every day. That concludes the personal messages, we continue with music.” What’s No.2 doing spending his time listening to Radio Village? Perhaps it’s a case of “music while you work.” Yet the music must have ended very quickly, because by the time No.2 and his assistant leave the Green Dome on their way to the Town Hall there is no music. Except for the incidental music which accompanies the scene, unless that is the music being played by radio village. And yet by the time No.2 and his assistant arrive in the Control Room the Supervisor is no longer working as a disc jockey!
   In previous episodes the voice, and disc jockey of Village Radio was the sultry voice of Fenella Fielding. I did once think it might have been a nice touch to have seen Fenella reading out No.6’s birthday greeting. However that would have messed up the following scene in which the Supervisor was removed from his job!


Be seeing you
