Round The Bend by Nevil Shute

Sat 19th Mar 1966, 20:30 on BBC Home Service Basic
The novel by Nevil Shute adapted by Stephen Grenfell

“Some men of noble stock were made. Some glory in the murder blade
Some praise a Science or an Art, But I like honourable Trade!”

Tom Cutter is in love with airplanes and has been from his boyhood. He can remain in England, an employee in another man's aviation business, or he can set out on his own.

With little more than personal grit and an antique aircraft, Cutter organizes an independent flying service on the Persian Gulf. He sees opportunities everywhere, also dangers.

"In Cutter's growth from provincial conservative to worldly entrepreneur, Shute brings us a fine portrayal of a man willing to accept pain and danger in his search for personal growth."
