Losers: The Complete Series 1 and 2: A BBC Radio 4 Full-Cast Comedy

"Laugh-out-loud comedy about two unfulfilled 40-somethings trying to get the best out of life This is the complete series of Niall Ashdown and Luke Sorba's (strictly non-autobiographical) hilarious sitcom about two men in their forties who really don't know what to do with themselves. The duo attempt (and mostly fail) to make their mark on the world and prove that they really aren’t as pointless as they feel. Embarking on a series of haphazard adventures covering everything from the human condition to sex, food and some surprising things in-between, they are keen to prove to old school friends they have actually achieved in life. When Niall and Luke hatch a plan to become successful novelists they decide what’s needed is a bunch of trendy half-baked ideas and a killer pitch and definitely not effort and tenacity. And what about sporting prowess? Surely they are in their prime with the stamina, dedication and physical fitness to make an impact? Things don’t quite go to plan when they find themselves trapped in a cable car on a ski trip with two about-to-be-newlyweds and decide to dole out relationship advice. The directionless twosome never quite seem to get things going in their own lives, particularly when they are forced to consider their own mortality at a funeral. And the less said about the fancy dress party, the better… Luke Sorba has written sitcoms for radio and TV, as well as sketches and stand-up comedy, and is the author of two novels. Niall Ashdown is a comedian, actor, improvisor and writer. He has starred in Whose Line Is It Anyway? and regularly appears in TV and radio comedies as well as on the stage. Contains adult humour.

Whispers: The Complete Series 1-3: A BBC Radio 4 Comedy Panel Game

"Gyles Brandreth presents the quiz show with scandal on its mind Hosted by the least discreet man in Britain, broadcaster and national treasure Gyles Brandreth, Whispers is the panel game that celebrates all things scurrilous and salacious. Running the gauntlet of gossip are two teams of two guests, who test their wits and wit as they try to tell the difference between fact, fiction and outlandish speculation. In the opening round, they are challenged to work out whether a given allegation is true, false or a 'whisper' (a rumour that was widely circulated, but never proven). Subsequent rounds include 'Scandal of the Week', in which they must flesh out the bare bones of a celebrity biography by buzzing in with the missing information; and 'Loose Connections', where their task is to pinpoint the sensational or bizarre link between two well-known personalities. At the end of each show, five bonus points are allocated to anyone who can identify a fib told by Gyles earlier in the game. Team captains Anthony Holden, Stella Duffy and Lucy Moore are joined by panellists including Lynne Truss, Jennie Bond, Julian Fellowes, Richard Herring, Louise Doughty and John O'Farrell to probe the follies and foibles of the famous and infamous. Did Queen Victoria take cannabis? What's the connection between Salman Rushdie and The Beatles? And was Bonaparte really attacked on his wedding night by Josephine's dog? Find out in the quiz that puts naughty before nice and dishes the dirt on the bad boys and girls of history.

Money in the Morgue: The New Inspector Alleyn Mystery

"Roderick Alleyn is back in this unique crime novel begun by Ngaio Marsh during the Second World War and now completed by Stella Duffy in a way that has delighted reviewers and critics alike. Shortlisted for the CWA Historical Dagger Award 2018. It’s business as usual for Mr Glossop as he does his regular round delivering wages to government buildings scattered across New Zealand’s lonely Canterbury plains. But when his car breaks down he is stranded for the night at the isolated Mount Seager Hospital, with the telephone lines down, a storm on its way and the nearby river about to burst its banks. Trapped with him at Mount Seager are a group of quarantined soldiers with a serious case of cabin fever, three young employees embroiled in a tense love triangle, a dying elderly man, an elusive patient whose origins remain a mystery … and a potential killer. When the payroll disappears from a locked safe and the hospital’s death toll starts to rise faster than normal, can the appearance of an English detective working in counterespionage be just a lucky coincidence – or is something more sinister afoot?"
