Scope and content
SUMMARY: "Saturday Evening" was a series of 1.5-hour programs that were broadcast from 8:30 to 10:00 PM. Usually in two parts, the programs featured plays, classical music concerts, documentaries, and talks. The series ran from October 1962 to the spring of 1967. This episode, "The Fort and the City", is about Victoria the city in the days of Victoria the Queen. The first section, "The Fort", is based on letters and written memoirs from the era of Fort Victoria. The second part, "The City", is compiled from the spoken memoirs of people who lived there during the latter part of the 19th century. The latter material is drawn from oral history interviews recorded by Imbert Orchard for the earlier series, "Living Memory".
