More Radio
Lots of work = lots of radio, not much of anything else.
Charles Augustus Milverton - Possibly the only Holmes radio play that could be called a 'romp' - the scene where Watson demonstrates his skill at arts and crafts is enough to justify listening in itself, but there are so many other priceless scenes besides.
Red As Blood - One of the positive side effects of the recent popular fixation on vampires is this rerun of a take on Snow White that totally blew my mind, and successfully overrode the warbly milquetoast ingenue image ingrained by Disney. It only lasts till Tuesday, though, so if you're going to listen, do it soon!
The Caesars: Nero - I've never been much interested in classical history but these dramatized biographies are really compellingly done. Nero's is my favourite, though a significant factor in that may be that it's told by a Nero watching his grave being dug. ... and then I wonder why I seem to have a different threshold for 'dark' than the people who run Disney. Of course, being Nero, it has, erm ... 'adult concepts.' But it comes with a Kate Beaton comic!
