Any Radio Drama/comedy Recommendations
26 Answers
Judging by recent posts this Radio section seems to be a bit of a ghost town, but here goes...
I'm looking for suggestions that maybe I can find other than on the BBC Iplayer.
Just to give a flavour of shows I like:
Cabin Pressure, Hut 33, The News Quiz, Sneakipeeks
Readings/plays of Poirot, Wimsey or noir, Chandleresque type crime.
Oh, and sci fi - I recently listened to a pile of 50's 'Jet Morgan' stuff; fantastic.
Any ideas?

Since you like the Wimsey stories, R4E also regularly broadcasts several Paul Temple stories and (my personal favourite) the complete Sherlock Holmes starring Clive Merrison, which are detailed here http:// www.mer risonho lmes.co m/index .php but all are available to be downloaded if you search hard enough (I have all 80 episodes downloaded for free but can't remember at this time on a Friday night just where I got them from).
Here's the schedule for Rok Radio's British Comedy Channel:

Many are American but there are some Radio 4 plays (listed as 'BBC4 Afternoon Play') plus stuff like 'Beyond Our Ken' and lots more if you dig deep enough.
Much of my radio listening is to the Rok Radio channels (above) plus some downloads from the OTRR Library. If, among all that lot, I still can't find something I like, there's always the 24-hour Goon show channel ;-)
