Pick Ups: The Complete Series 1 and 2: A Full-Cast BBC Radio Comedy

"The darkly comic ups and downs of a Manchester taxi company Dave is one of Irwell Cars' best drivers, although his life doesn't always reflect that. A run-down office with an uncertain future, Irwell Cars isn't offering Dave much - except the chance to pine after Lind, the long-suffering radio operator and his secret crush, and panic over what will become of him if the firm closes. Add in a crucial darts match, a 'Brief Encounter' themed date night, some former school bullies and a rather difficult omelette, and Dave is beginning to feel like even his pick ups are bringing him down... Each episode shares a self-contained tale from the backseat tippers of the after-hours city, as well as unravelling a little more of the life stories of the bantering drivers as they navigate the hard shoulder of a thing called life. Starring John Thomson (Cold Feet, The Fast Show), Sally Lindsay (Coronation Street, Mount Pleasant), Lesley Sharp (Scott & Bailey, Clocking Off), Suranne Jones (Doctor Foster, Gentleman Jack), Paul Loughran (Emmerdale Farm, Blue Murder) and Ash Tandon (Bodyguard, The Phantom of the Open), this dark comedy about unrequited love, lost opportunities, and earning a (mostly) honest wage is just the listen for fans of Deep Trouble, To Hull and Back, and Reluctant Persuaders.

On The Edge and other stories: 11 BBC Radio Thrillers

"11 gripping thrillers from some of BBC Radio's best contemporary writers, including BAFTA- winner Neil McKay Inventive, intriguing and atmospheric, this eclectic selection of crime, mystery and psychological dramas immerses us in a series of diverse worlds where nothing is what it appears to be, and nobody is quite what they seem. Wide in scope and disparate in style, the stories range from a police procedural and a dark, dystopian eco-thriller to a shocking tale of modern-day slavery, based on real-life events. Created by a host of writers, including BAFTA Award-winning playwright Neil McKay, they are by turn chilling, surreal, haunting and darkly comic. Meet Maynard, desperate to turn his life around and escape a life of crime; teenagers Saurabh and Yusuf, who make a sinister discovery on Alderly Edge; Kit, struggling to regain her identity after an accident; and Tiger Girl Michelle, addicted to gambling in London's casinos. All will experience the unexpected, and find their lives changed beyond recognition...

Gender Rebels

"Includes audio exclusive bonus material: Suranne Jones, Maya Jama, Gemma Cairney and Anneka Harry discuss their favourite Gender Rebels, feminism, their female role models and how women are missing (or misrepresented) in the history books. Meet the unsung sheroes of history: the diverse, defiant and daring (wo)men who changed the rules, and their identities, to get sh*t done. You’ll encounter Kit Cavanagh, the swaggering Irish dragoon who was the first woman to be buried in London with full military honours; marauding eighteenth-century pirates Mary Read and Anne Bonny, who collided on the high seas after swapping their petticoats for pantaloons; Ellen Craft, an escaped slave who masqueraded as a white master to spirit her husband-to-be to freedom; and Billy Tipton, the swinging jazz musician, who led a double life as an adult, taking five wives along the way. Then there are the women who still have to dress like men to live their best lives, like the inspirational football-lovers in Iran, who risk everything to take their place in the stands. A call to action for the modern world, this book celebrates the #GenderRebels who paved the way for women everywhere to be soldiers and spies; kings and queens; firefighters, doctors, pilots; and a Swiss Army knife’s-worth more. These superbly spirited (wo)men all had one thing in common: they defied the rules to progress in a man’s world."
