About this episode
We say goodbye to Herbert Marshall - one of the most frequent guest stars on Suspense . Marshall logged twenty appearances on "radio's outstanding theatre of thrills" between 1944 and 1959. He also starred in the 1940 audition show that helped to get Suspense a slot on the schedule. We'll hear him in a pair of those shows - an adaptation of Wilkie Collins' "The Dead Alive" (originally aired on CBS on March 9, 1953) and "The Long Shot," the story of a very deadly road trip (AFRS rebroadcast from February 9, 1958). Plus, we'll hear Marshall in his own radio series as The Man Called X - a debonair, globetrotting secret agent - in a pair of adventures (originally aired on NBC on January 13, 1951 and February 17, 1951).
