    Hi.
    A great article by Gillian Reynolds  in todays Sunday Telegraph (
    [removed] ) about BBC Radio drama. It doesn't seem to be up on the
    Telegraph's website yet, but search for it later in the day under the
    following title :
    'From Neverwhere to The Navy Lark: its a feast for the ears'

    Cheers ! Graeme ( ORCA / UK )
