To me your penchant for first takes put you right up there with Clint Eastwood. You certainly got superb results. And you always let me record a second take when I felt the need. Well, usually!

Perhaps I can clarify the Òne Take` reference. It was because Neil brought his incredible energy and focus to the rehearsal session before we ever got to the studio floor. The work was already done. And beyond that his electricity energized his fellow cast members to the point that the performance bar was raised far above the level of `excellent`. We have enjoyed a long history of fine radio actors from the days of John Drainie, Jane Mallet, Frank Perry and a great many others. Neil Munro was certainly among the front rank of those incredible talents. It was a great privilege to have him around to make all of us look better. I will always treasure his friendship. Joe, a really nice appreciation of Neil.
