P. D. James
The Private Patient

The Private Patient, an Adam Dalgliesh murder mystery, was first published in 2008. This dramatisation stars Richard Derrington as Commander Dalgliesh and Deborah McAndrew as D. I. Kate Miskin. Adam Dalgliesh, named after one of James’s teachers, has been one of crime fiction’s most interesting and original creations. No policeman has been more learned, more intellectual or more sensitive; no other has been a published poet. And in addition to that, he’s good-looking and wealthy! P. D. James has worked in the Home Office, in the Police Department and the Criminal Policy Department, and has used all that experience in her novels. She has won awards for crime writing in Britain, America, Italy and Scandinavia, including the Mystery Writers of America Grandmaster Award.

‘You know you’re in the company of PD James from the first sentence: elegantly phrased, plot-driven, multi-layered and laced with menace’ – The Observer

Alan Bennett at the BBC

Alan Bennett presents highlights from his remarkable career at the BBC. This unique anthology of Bennett’s BBC radio and television work features extracts from his diaries and readings, as well as tributes to friends Russell Harty and Peter Cook. He recollects his early memories of Leeds, reads his favourite children’s stories (most of which he only discovered as an adult) and reveals his first and only true comedy performance. He talks about the business of being a writer and muses on language, television, the theatre and his abiding interest in art and architecture.

Including interviews, songs and drama.
