View source for Blue Veils and Golden Sands (radio play)

''Blue Veils and Golden Sands'' is a 45-minute radio play about Delia's life.

The script is an uninspired and awkward pastiche of material from her interviews. The actress who plays Delia makes her sound weak and silly, very different from the Delia we know from her interviews, and it harps on about alcoholism roughly once every five minutes.

It was also published on a BBC CD together with Delia's music from the other BBC Radiophonic Workshop albums:
