1834 Time Travelling Teacher: A BBC Radio 4 Comedy

"Jim Poyser's BBC radio riotous six-part comedy of time travel and delight Jason Slater is a very average twenty-first-century English teacher from Cheadle Hulme, but somehow wakes up after a few drinks in nineteenth-century Macclesfield. Apparently, he's now Tarquin, third son of Lord Belport, with a faithful valet, a suspicious brother, a spurned ex-girlfriend (who's now going out with his brother) - and no obvious way he'll ever get back home again. From toasted sandwich makers and the perfect beer, to root canals and royal visits, can Jason - Tarquin, that is - change the course of history and make 1834 his playground? Or will all his modern sentiments and inventions cause total disaster for the rest of time - or at least the rest of his life)? A fun comedy of historical proportions, 1834: Time Travelling Teacher is created by the writer of Stockport: So Good They Named It Once and The Architects. Cast Jason Slater: Michael Begley Ned: Joe Caffery Hoskins: Kenneth Alan Taylor Lord Belfort: Mark Chatterton Henry: James Nickerson Luddite/Highwayman: Toby Hadoke Millicent: Julia Rounthwaite Stubbs: Glenn Cunningham Duke of Cranmere: John Craig Queen Victoria: Caroline Harding First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 on the following dates: 11 June - 16 July 2003 Production credits Written by Jim Poyser Directed by Polly Thomas ©2023 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd (P)2023 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd"
