My Brilliant Divorce, Hörbuch, Digital, 43min
Caroline Quentin stars in Geraldine Aron's radio adaptation of her Olivier-nominated West End hit, a comedy drama about surviving divorce with your sense of humour intact. Good-natured, slightly overweight, former window-dresser Angela (declared age 39, real age 51) thinks her marriage will last forever. But suddenly her husband, Max, who has an irritatingly round head, loses his heart to beautiful young Rosa, and moves out. Cheerful about her unexpected freedom at first, Angela's spirits begin to droop as she copes with a mother who won't acknowledge the break-up because she considers divorce common, a misogynous solicitor, and Christmas alone, apart from Dexter, the family dog, and a number of help-line counsellors.

The Wild One , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 315min
Hector Langdon volunteered for service in the army in World War I when he was no more than 17 years old, though he gave his age as 20. It was the kind of reckless action he was to take all his life, much to the regret of his solicitor father who wished him to follow in the same profession. Hector would have none of it - it would have been far too boring for his taste. So he drifted from one occupation to another after the war, never really settling down. It seemed he had to be forever on the move. Until he met Eva Gray, and even that meeting was to lead in the end to tragedy. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Peter Wickham.
