  • Absorbing

    Intricately constructed and multi-layered podcast which covers a lot of ground whilst remaining focused on the circumstances of Rathband's story. Writing, editing and performance all come together to create an absorbing listen; particularly appreciated the author himself telling us just why he wanted to write about this story, and how much P.C. Rathband's online presence meant to him. It's a richly detailed study of humanity in extreme circumstances and definitely worth your time.

  • Powerful, compelling and tragic

    This is hard to pigeonhole... It swings from achingly sad to pitch black hilarity in seconds. So many layers weaving personal tragedy with the cultural history of now, with the impact of social media. It's really gripping and thought provoking. I can't recommend it enough.

  • Outstanding

    Compelling, beautiful, tragic and insightful. This bittersweet bath is a gorgeously layered audioscape that takes one policeman's extraordinary true story and turns it in a very personal and richly artistic tapestry. It's a piece that pushes verbatim playwriting to a new degree of truth and creativity, weaving together the strands of criminality, celebrity, male suicide and the early days of social media with incredible deftness.
