  • Radio at its best!

    I found this little gem totally by accident - thought I was downloading something completely different - however seeing as it was short thought I’d listen anyway. Absolutely top notch radio drama and in easy bits size pieces. So if you haven’t tried this or think it’s not for you jump right in and enjoy. It’s clever, superb casting , along with excellent writing, what’s not to like?
