Great find! Thanks for posting this.

I'm partial to an old fashioned radio drama and this one was pretty good. Michael Gough was terrific as Alfred, as usual. It's nice that he featured so prominently in the story. I also liked the way they managed to cram in so many references to different comic stories and weave them all together.

It's interesting how the actors mispronounced 'Ras' like the cast of Batman Begins did.

I'm quite keen to hear the Knightfall radio drama now...
