? At 8 p.m. 2UW offers Elisabeth Bergner in "The Two Mrs. Car-rolls" and 2GB Frederick Lonsdale's "But For the Grace of God," with Lyndall Barbour and Max

Osbiston.

Both of these are also of the murder-thriller variety, the Lons-dale one having a touch of comedy.

New ¡Serial

JOHN APPLETON'S "Hester's

" Diary" has started on 2CH as the 7; 15 p.m. serial feature, Mon-day to Friday.

Hester, played by Elaine Mont. gomery, is Hester Bamford of Nor-

folk, whose 1809 diary tells how she faced the rigours of a voyage in a convict ship'to Sydney town to marry a man she had never met, played by John Tate.

Hester faced all the hardships rather than die a spinster in Eng-

land.
