About this listen
In "Sailing Day," the focus is on the couple’s embarkation, with Mrs. Lockhart buzzing with excitement about the journey ahead—destinations like London, Paris, and Rome on the horizon—while Will, ever the reluctant traveler, probably grumbles about leaving his familiar routine (and fishing gear) behind. The comedy likely stems from their contrasting reactions to the ship, the bustle of departure, and the looming prospect of a transatlantic voyage. Picture Will muttering about seasickness or the cost of the tickets, while Mrs. Lockhart marvels at the luxury liner and the promise of adventure.
As one of the surviving early episodes (within the first seven known to exist), "Sailing Day" sets the tone for the travelogue format, blending humor with a vivid depiction of 1930s ocean travel—a glamorous yet daunting experience for Americans of that era, especially during the Great Depression. Gene Lockhart’s script would’ve leaned on his and Kathleen’s real-life chemistry to bring the scene to life.
