It has never taken a hold of mainstream programming on commercial radio in the UK. It used to be the mainstream in the States and Australia but lost out to TV in the middle to late fifties. It is under threat within public radio services including the BBC because of the pressure of monetarist ideology and the fact that authors and radio drama directors have been

Turning and turning among these corners which lead forever to the street where nobody waits for‚ nobody follows me‚ where I pursue a man who stumbles and rises and says
