Occasionally (but rarely) William Conrad's voice did not work

The 26 October 1952 episode of Escape was entitled "Robert of Huntington," and it was about Robin Hood, whose band has to rescue Little John. Radio legend William Conrad portrays Robin Hood. It is well known that Conrad's physical appearance did not lend itself to leading man roles on the screen, but in this instance it also did not fit the character on radio, either. Conrad's voice is too gruff for the way we picture the outlaw leader. (Of course, that may have been much closer to the truth, but who is to know?)
