”The Stag Beetle flies at dusk” will again be a serial in the radio.

Maria Gripes and Kay Pollaks story was broadcast for the first time in Sveriges Radio 1976. Now SR is republishing the story in its app, the same year that Barnradion is 100 years old.

Interest is great, and we are happy that Tordyveln flyger i skymningen continues to engage and inspire, says Doreen Kanter, drama and children's radio manager at SR, in a press release.

”Tordyveln flyger i skymningen” has on several occasions been re-broadcast on the radio. The story about a gang of youths who in the 70s solve an ancient mystery, was also published as a book in 1978.

This summer, the story was also filmed for SVT.
