Escape was
widely
considered
radio’s
greatest
series of
high
adventure.
The
opening
was
usually
along the
same lines
of “Tired
of the
everyday
grind?
Ever dream
of a life
of …
romantic
adventure?
Want to
get away
from it
all? We
offer you
… Escape!”
You, the
listener,
are in the
shoes of
some
embattled
hero. You
are alone
and you
must face
the
impossible,
alone and
rise to
conquer or
be
conquered.
