Harry lands in Haiti, where he plans to grift a wealthy vacationer of an artifact once belonging to the only monarch of the Kingdom of Haiti. Episode 5 aired August 31, 1951. THE ADVENTURES OF HARRY LIME was Broadcast in the United States as The Lives of Harry Lime, an old time radio program produced in London, England during the 1951 to 1952 season. Orson Welles reprised his role of Harry Lime from the celebrated 1949 film The Third Man. The radio series is a "prequel" to the film, and depicts the many misadventures of con-artist Lime in a somewhat lighter tone than the character's villainy in the film. Most episodes would begin with "The Third Man Theme" being played, abruptly cut off by an echoing gunshot. "That was the shot that killed Harry Lime. He died in a sewer beneath Vienna, as those of you know who saw the movie The Third Man. Yes, that was the end of Harry Lime ... but it was not the beginning. Harry Lime had many lives ... and I can recount all of them. How do I know? Very simple. Because my name is Harry Lime."
