We bid goodbye to the old year and ring in the new with ‘Til We Meet Again, a tale of star-crossed lovers on an ocean liner with plans for a New Year’s Eve rendezvous…if the fates don’t conspire against them. We’ll hear three of the film’s stars - Merle Oberon, Pat O’Brien, and Geraldine Fitzgerald - in episodes of Suspense plus a Lux Radio Theatre recreation of the movie.  Ms. Fitzgerald tries to comfort her husband through his unusual nightmares in “A Friend to Alexander” (originally aired on CBS on June 15, 1944). Ms. Oberon stars in a story set in Nazi-occupied France - “The Bluebeard of Bellac” (originally aired on CBS on September 21, 1944). And Mr. O’Brien is a cop whose latest case hits close to home in “True Report” (originally aired on CBS on August 31, 1950). Finally, we’ll hear Ms. Oberon and her screen co-star George Brent reunite on The Lux Radio Theatre (originally aired on CBS on June 10, 1940).
