Radio School Stories

[antfan.livejournal.com]

So the BBC this week are doing, in their own words, "a series of three 'jolly hockey stick' stories for Radio 4 - performed by stars. These classic tales represent some of the best of popular 20th Century 'girls school fiction'."

Good Show Clarissa, 3.30-3.45pm, Tues-Thurs
Three jolly hockey stick school stories:
Tues: A Midnight Revel by Angela Brazil, read by Helen Mirren
Wed: Jemima Gets Them Guessing by Hilda Richards, read by Lisa Dillon
Thur: The Cheat by Enid Blyton, read by Joanna Lumley

What a shame they didn't include Antonia Forest! I can't believe any R4 listeners, however nostalgic, are really keen to listen to Enid Blyton! Why don't we all post on the BBC boards suggesting they read/dramatise some Antonia Forest in the future?
