The music might be annoying now, but back in 1967 it would have been terrifying. Electronic sound was still relatively new at the time.

Scientist John Nicholson (Paul Daneman) tells how he was plunged into a paralysing nightmare of stark terror, savage madness and utter destruction. Martin Jarvis, Peter Sallis, and Anthony Jackson also feature in this thrilling six-part dramatisation of HG Wells' book, first broadcast on Radio 4 in 1967

Well acted and reasonably well-adapted version of the Wells novel, but grating, screechy/overdone sound and music effects damage many parts (in my opinion). Frustrating, since so much of this is, otherwise, nicely done.

I like to play a game of trying to figure out what year a radio play was produced and/or what era it is set in (without Googling, of course). WOTW is perfect since it could be any time from late 1800s to present (or future). This has been tricky. The first few minutes left me thinking it was set in the original time period, 1897. I’m about halfway through now, and have formed a rough idea. The jets, helicopters, and mopeds would place it after WWII. There is no sense of the Cellular Era, so 1980s would be the upper bound. The natural dialogue (excellent writing by the way) would suggest it was written in the 1970s or later. The synthesizer should place the production somewhere between Jean Jacques Perry’s Moog albums starting in 1966 and ending when all pre-existing sci-fi sound effects were wiped out by Star Wars in 1977. Based on all that, I would say: set in 1970 and produced at that time. However, there are problems: there has been no mention of the media- no TV, no radio reporters, newspapers, even telephones haven’t played a role. That’s odd since most versions focus on how the news is communicated rather than the action itself (Wells, 1897, Welles, 1938). In addition, that era would almost certainly have referenced the contemporary Space Race or at least the existence of manned space flight. Maybe produced in 1970, but set in 1950s? Any guesses?

The Radiophonic Workshop was only using oscillators and tape loops and standard keyboard instruments in 1967.If you listen properly no synthesisers(Moog,Bulcha Ems) were used in creating the audio for this.

I agree with the others. I've seen heard or read every version I come across, and there are many...This one is a keeper. The best radio play. Yes, the early synths are a bit shrill...but the acting and the vibe they create more than make up fore it.... candle light, a cup of Earl Grey ...and you're set.

Now the air is cold with early, chill, dark nights...the time for ghost stories and fantasy! Perhaps two radio play ghost stories I’ve produced AND a brand new mystery listed on my channel “Claude Chabot Presents” right here on YT AND a radio fantasy comedy, “A Trip to the Moon” starring Joyce Randolph of The Honeymooners, which features Larry Robinson, who, as a child actor, actually worked with Orson Welles. Here’s the link: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fsuoZc-l3tGyhIE.html--Claud. If you don’t want to click the link just search “Claude Chabot presents” on KZfaq.

There should be one about CoViD 19. Ithould be similar in axopw ro Orsen Wells' radio story.v It should be similar to yje 1997 version of the story. Songs should be in the form of Chriatmas music, and the story should be following the story like a modern day newsroom in a developing story of this nature. This would be a dramatization, ch is a play. A disclamer alerting of the fact would show up.
