Product Description

Simon Ward & Tessa Peake-Jones star in this suspenseful BBC Radio dramatisation of Karel Capek's play. Fired by a passionate enthusiasm to improve on Nature, old Rossum spends a decade trying to create humans. The experiments fail, until Rossum's engineer nephew takes over & manages to invent artificial beings. Intelligent machines, with no emotions & no souls, these 'robots' make perfect workers. When Harry Domain, general manager of Rossum's Universal Robots, has a visit from Helena Glory, he is only too pleased to agree to her request for a tour of the factory. But Helena is horrified & moved to pity by what she sees, & persuades Dr Gall to instil consciousness into certain robots
- with catastrophic results...
