The Lives Of Harry Lime - Double Double Cross (01-18-52)

<b>T</b><b>he Third Man (The Lives of Harry Lime) </b>was a old-time radio adventure series that ran in 1951 and 1952. It was based on the 1949 film of the same name. Orson Welles stars as Harry Lime, a perpetually broke confidence man, smuggler, and general scoundrel. He will participate in virtually any criminal activity to make a fast buck, but uses his wits rather than a gun. He draws the line short of murder, blackmail, or drugs. Even so, Harry is an endearing character and listeners love to hear of his one-step-ahead-of-the-law misadventures as he hops around the globe looking for his next pigeon. The zither music of Anton Karas adds a wonderful Viennese ambience to each episode and really makes this show special.<br><br><b>THIS EPISODE:</b><br><br>January 18, 1952 - <i><b>The Double Double Cross</b></i> -  Lang-Worth syndication.
