Muriel Spark: A BBC Radio Drama Collection
Nine Full Cast Dramatisations including The Girls of Slender Means, The Prime of Miss Brodie and moreBBC Radio dramatisations of some of Muriel Spark’s best works, plus bonus episode of The Essay: All Miss Brodie’s GirlsMuriel Spark was one of Scotland’s brightest and most original literary talents. In a career spanning over 60 years, she published over 20 novels, as well as essays, poems and plays. Her work won her numerous awards and honours, and she was made a Dame in 1993 for her services to literature. These nine radio dramas showcase the breadth and variety of her oeuvre, with tales ranging from the humorous to the macabre, and featuring casts including Celia Imrie, Patricia Hodge, Siân Phillips, Mark Straker, Sorcha Cusack and Maggie Service.In The Girls of Slender Means, it is 1945, and a group of young women are bracing for the future as the world transitions to peace. The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie focusses on an inspirational teacher whose illusions are shattered by a tragic betrayal. Based on Spark’s own Edinburgh schooldays in the 1930s, this classic tale was adapted as an Oscar-winning film and chosen as one of the BBC’s 100 ‘Novels That Shaped Our World’. Memento Mori, meanwhile, is a gloriously dark, metaphysical comedy, set among a group of elderly people tormented by an anonymous caller who repeatedly rings with the message ‘Remember, you must die’.The Vital Spark: The Driver’s Seat tells the tense, disturbing story of Lise, an enigmatic young woman travelling alone to a European city in search of ‘the one’, while The Abbess of Crewe is a sparkling satire on the Watergate affair, centred around a rigged election in a Benedictine convent. A Far Cry From Kensington evokes a witty slice of ’50s London life, as we meet the inhabitants of a rooming-house near South Kensington Underground, and the charming gentlemen and ladies of the shabby but genteel world of publishing. The winner of the 1962 Prix Italia, The Ballad of Peckham Rye is a musical version of Muriel Sparks’ magical realist fable, with lyrics by Spark herself and music by pioneering composer Tristram Cary. Also featured are an adaptation of Bang, Bang, You’re Dead, a short crime story set in Africa; and Spark’s first radio play, the ghost story The Party Through the Wall. Capping off the collection is a bonus programme, The Essay: All Miss Brodie’s Girls, presented by Ali Smith and exploring the many glittering facets of Muriel Spark.Cast and creditsWritten by Muriel SparkFirst published 1957 (The Party Through the Wall), 1959 (Memento Mori), 1960 (The Ballad of Peckham Rye), 1961 (The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie), 1963 (The Girls of Slender Means), 1970 (The Driver’s Seat), 1974 (The Abbess of Crewe), 1982 (Bang-Bang You’re Dead), 1988 (A Far Cry from Kensington)ContentsThe Girls of Slender MeansThe Prime of Miss Jean BrodieMemento MoriThe Vital Spark: The Driver’s SeatThe Abbess of CreweA Far Cry from KensingtonThe Ballad of Peckham RyeBang, Bang, You’re DeadThe Party Through the WallThe Essay: All Miss Brodie’s Girls© 2026 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd.

The Senses
Six Full-Cast BBC Radio Comedy DramasA sensory smash as an all-star cast delight in this unique six-part comedy drama A stellar line up of stars, including Celia Imrie (The Crown), Joan Sims (Carry On), Alex Jennings (The Lady in the Van), Geoffrey Palmer (As Time Goes By) and Lynda Bellingham (Loose Women), play a cast of moving and memorable characters in this brilliant six-part comedy drama. Let these sensory delights take you into the classic five senses we know… plus the other one. In Hearing, Celia Imrie is embroiled in an affair conducted via tape cassette-recorded messages. The scenario conjures up a few problems with the sense of hearing… Touch is the story of a busy doctor's surgery failing its patients. That is until the loyal receptionist discovers she has a remarkable gift. Starring Polly James and Simon McBurney. A retired MP becomes a self-appointed one-man Moral Watch Committee trying to improve his sleepy Cornish village in Sight. Unfortunately his plans have the opposite effect. Things get stranger when a mysterious film crew arrives... Alex Jennings stars in Taste, the story of a 14th-century Italian food taster who must protect his master when they visit the Borgias. Things get complicated when the Pope is unexpectedly announced as a dinner guest. It’s the Boxing Day fox hunt in Smell, and throwing off the scent poses problems for the hunters and the hunted alike. Featuring Lynda Bellingham and Maurice Denham as a couple ahead of the pack. Finally, Geoffrey Palmer and Joan Sims star in The Sixth Sense, where conversation becomes far from neighbourly when the occupants of an old cemetery greet a new arrival and discover their lack of common ground. These pitch-perfect stories were penned by writer, director and actor Bob Sinfield. Sinfield was on the writing teams for some of the biggest sketch comedy programmes on TV and radio including The Right Time and The News Huddlines as well as The Lenny Henry Show and Three of a Kind. ©2025 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd (P)2025 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd
