A collection of three BBC Radio dramas from award-winning author Alan Bennett.
A Visit from Miss Prothero features Mr Dodsworth, a retiree who has all the time in the world. Then he has a visitor from his old firm – Miss Prothero, who is eager to tell him all the news. It was first broadcast on BBC Radio 4 on 11 January 1978.
In Say Something Happened, a naive, inexperienced social worker calls on an elderly couple – but does she need more help than they do? It was first broadcast on BBC Radio 4 on 18 April 1989.
And in Two in Torquay, a middle-aged man and a middle-aged woman engage in polite conversation in a hotel on the Cornish Riviera. But neither is quite who they appear to be. Who is deceiving whom? It was first broadcast on BBC Radio 4 on 19 May 2003.
Amusing, ironic and affectionate, these three adaptations feature Hugh Lloyd, Patricia Routledge, Judi Dench, Thora Hird, Brian Wilde, Imelda Staunton and Alan Bennett himself.
