I just came across a BBC radio serial I used to like called Crown House. My word what a cast! You wouldn't be able to hire half of Martin Jarvis's left kneecap on the budget they have nowadays, that's why he does radio productions via his own company. Anyway, I was so glad to get this back again, it reminds me of the heady days of the late eighties early nineties when radio was still worth listening to and we were beginning to be able to buy plays and serials on cassette! No more bits missing while we turned the tape over. No more crackle. No more putting the radio into mono to get rid of the stereo hiss. Ok, usually heavy editing but that was livable with. But this one isn't edited now, they've released it in all eight parts. Happy making.
