The Saint This is an attempt to clarify the Saint's adventures on radio. There are a lot of episodes in circulation, mainly from the Price era, and some of these shows are circulating under various titles. What follows is a basic log; transmission date against the offical title. Official title? All titles are obtained from the "as broadcast" scripts, and as such I think they qualified to be called official. Alternative titles, and their sources where known, are also listed. There is more. I am working on a full listing of cast and credits, as well as an article telling the story behind the shows. If you want to know more, or have any corrections, amendments or suggestions, please feel free to contact me.
