Little Dorrit: Episode 1 Dickensian

A recent BBC Radio 4 drama is now availavle to download from BBC iPlayer. 

Devoted by Ray Connolly

In 2020 writer Ray Connolly spent six months in hospital with Covid. As the virus attacked his body, he was, for much of the time, in a coma. Unaware of how doctors and nurses were saving his life, his mind was filled with fantasies. Only when he recovered did he discover that his wife, Plum, had sent daily bulletins on his condition to their children, some of which had made harrowing reading. Devoted is the story of how Plum would fear the ringing of the phone from the hospital, but also of how music was used to break into Ray’s coma and help nurse him back to health.

A new drama for Radio 3 will broadcast tonight at 7.30pm. Joseph Millson stars as Pierre in 'The Son' written Florian Zeller, and translated by Christopher Hampton.

Starring Laurie Kynaston, Joseph Millson and Nicola Walker, in a translation by Christopher Hampton, Florian Zeller’s timely play about parenthood explores the impact of mental illness on an already fractured family.

Pierre is about to realise a career dream and has a new baby with his second wife Sofia. Into this picture of family happiness walks his son, Nicolas, by his first wife, Anne. Nicolas has been struggling with depression, has fallen out with his mum and thinks coming to live with his dad will help him get back on track. It’s not long before past and present collide, reawakening resentments and painful memories.

Thanks to Lisa on Twitter for spotting that the complete BBC Radio series 'The Interrogation' is now available to buy on Amazon and Audible. Joseph's appeared as Neil in series 5, which was broadcast in March 2017. 

Kenneth Cranham and Alex Lanipekun star in these 15 hard-hitting crime dramas. Chalk and cheese coppers Max Matthews and Sean Armitage are from different generations and different worlds, but together they make a remarkable team. In this powerful, unconventional police procedural, we join the detective duo in the interview room as they practise their unique style of interrogation in a bid to extract a confession.

Joseph Millson can currently be heard as Golyadkin and The Double on BBC Radio 4, in an adaptation of Dostoyevsky's The Double. If you miss the broadcast, don't worry, you can catch up on BBC iPlayer.
