Dead inside, but standing tall. Like a tree.”<br /><br />A married old couple spends their days regretting that their beloved grandson left. Mr. Balboa, in order to help with his wife’s sadness, fakes letters and pretends they are written by their grandson. One day, a real letter saying he is coming back arrives. The grandson decides to come back home to get some money, but the boat sinks. Balboa hires an imitator, together with a very nice girl, who pretends to be the lost grandson in front of the grandmother. But the evil and real grandson arrives by surprise: he is not dead as they thought.<br /><br />Producer:….Norman Wright<br /><br />Helena:……Polly Murch<br />Professor:……Earle Grey<br />Isabel:…..Beryl Calder<br />Director:……Simon Lack<br />Balboa:……Norman Claridge<br />Hunter:…….Gordon Faith<br />Genoveva:…….Kathleen Helme<br />Felisa:……..Patricia Leventon<br />Grandmother:……..Olga Lindo<br />The Other:……Edward Kelsey<br /><br />Saturday-Night Theatre: Trees Die on their Feet<br />Sat 8th Aug 1964, 20:30 on BBC Home Service Basic<br /><br />Do you enjoy the variety on Oldtuberadio?<br />Like, Share and Subscribe to be notified of our new shows<br />#radio #crime #thriller #drama<br />To Support this channel please visit<br />https://www.buymeacoffee.com/oldtuberadio<br />https://ko-fi.com/oldtuberadio98<br />https://www.patreon.com/oldtuberadio<br />https://locals.com/Oldtuberadio
