This Week The Vault mines the colonial past of Newfoundland with some clips from out adventure in Ougoubamba, plus Paul gets ready for his epic voyage "Up The Bamba..." All this and more on Newfoundland's Cultural Magazine, The Great Eastern, Saturday morning at 11:31 a.m. (12:01 NT) on CBC Radio One.
This is a rebroadcast of a GE favourite from November 15, 1997. There's audio clips in our archive.
From the webmaster: As you may gather from the graphic, this could be the end of The Great Eastern broadcasts to Canada. April 24 was the last new show of the season. Rebroadcasts of some favourite Great Eastern episodes will continue until June 19th. We'll keep you up-to-date on the situation here on the web page, but it is precarious, depending not only on the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, but also on the Governments of Canada, Newfoundland and possibly Panama.
