Richard Barton: General Practitioner!: A BBC Radio 4 Crime Drama: Another Dick Barton Adventure

"Laurence 'Lol' Mason's spin-off homage to Dick Barton, following the adventures of the unretirable special agent and his doctor son A thrilling saga of criminal masterminds, espionage and adventure, Edward J. Mason's Dick Barton: Special Agent was a huge hit on the BBC Light Programme between 1946 and 1951. Together with his mates Jock Anderson and Snowy White, ex-Commando Dick faced dastardly villains and deadly peril - but always triumphed ('With one bound, Dick was free!') Half a century later, Edward J's son Lol paid affectionate tribute to the much-loved radio hero with this sparkling pastiche, featuring the joint escapades of father-and-son duo Dick and Richard Barton. Recuperating after an operation, the elderly crimefighter comes to stay with his GP son and daughter-in-law Sally in their sleepy rural village. Peace and quiet is what the doctor orders, so Dick settles down to get some rest and write his memoirs. But soon, mysterious parallels emerge between past and present, as Dick's old adventures start to echo events in Appledon... Robert Bathurst stars as Richard Barton, with Sally Phillips and Matilda Ziegler as Sally, Moray Watson as Dick Barton, Julian Dutton as his younger self and Iain Cuthbertson as Jock.

The Leopard in Autumn: A BBC Radio 4 comedy drama

"Comedy about the ruling family of Renaissance Italy's most inconsequential city-state In Monte Guano, a ridiculously small and penniless principality in Renaissance Italy, Prince Ludovico II finds his rule constantly undermined by those around him: his shrewd wife, his official mistress, and his three disappointing - if not outright humiliating - sons. As well as having to manage the ever-increasing tributes demanded by the Pope, Prince Ludovico must also contend with feeble conscripts in search of war booty, getting on the pilgrim map, fake currency, religious battles, and worst of all, English tourists. Can they keep their family together despite the chaos of their lives? Perfect for fans of Blackadder and The Castle, the brilliant comedy cast includes David Swift as Ludovico, Sian Phillips as Plethora, Graham Crowden as Francesco and Paul Bigley as Alessandro, as well as Saskia Wickham, Nick Romero, Christopher Kelham and Kim Wall. Production credits Devised by Neal Anthony Written by Neal Anthony, Roger Danes and Sue Limb Produced by Helen Williams and Dawn Ellis Cast Ludovico - David Swift Plethora - Sian Phillips Francesco - Graham Crowden Alessandro - Paul Bigley Rosalie - Saskia Wickham Salvatore - Nick Romero Guido - Christopher Kelham Brother Michael/Father Ignazio - Kim Wall Lord Luton - Nicholas Grace Series 1 First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in April 2001 Series 2 First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in May 2002 ©2022 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd (P)2022 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd"
