{{Thumb|The Bagman|THE BAGMAN or The Impromptu of Muswell Hill by John Arden / BBC Radio}}

Delia produced electronic music and effects for the BBC's 1970 production of ''The Bagman or The Impromptu of Muswell Hill'', a radio play by [[John Arden]], directed by [[Martin Esslin]]. The presenter for a repeat broadcast says: "In it, in the form of a dream, some of the problems facing a socially conscious playwright in our time are described."

The play is one hour and 28 minutes in length and is described as a "Witty Fable" and a "modern version of Molière's Versailles Impromptu"<ref>[http://www.doollee.com/PlaywrightsA/arden-john.html#993 John Arden's entry at doollee.com]</ref>.
<BLOCKQUOTE>
John Arden has a dream in which he meets an old woman who sells him a canvas bag, "A pig in a poke", he then finds himself transported to a dystopian land where the people are starving while the rich live in idleness and squalor.<ref>[http://audiodrama.wikia.com/wiki/The_Bagman audiodrama.wiki.com's entry for ''The Bagman'']</ref>

A note in her papers says that [[The Bagman]] was entered by the BBC for the Italia Prize 1970 and that she was scheduled to receive 20% of the prize money if the play should win.<ref>[[DD141636]]: Memo dated 8th July 1970 from A.
