Format:Audio Cassette
This production of Bleak House won the 1999 Sony Radio Best Drama Award
Format:Audio Cassette
This is an outstanding production by the BBC. It has a full cast and was recorded in an English castle to give those eerie effects required by Bleak House. Michale Kitchen is John Jarndyce and plays an outstanding role. The audio has an outstanding stereophonic hi-fi quality finish. The sad thing is, that it isn't on sale by the BBC in cd form.

What the critics said:
"...terrific and should not be missed...Only when you hear a production like this, in which different scenes have been recorded in different rooms, do you realise how monotonous is the acoustic used by most radio drama. It makes the story live in another dimension..." David Sexton, Sunday Telegraph
"...the big one. A top-class production..." Evening Standard
"...one of the better ways to spend a winter's afternoon. Prepare for a novel approach..." The Times
"Anton Lesser's evil lawyer and Jean Marsh's maniac haunting the courts are terrific." Daily Mail
"...quite extraordinary richness and complexity of sound, and a deep, dark, sinister, fog-soaked ambience. It is like looking at a Tintoretto after a succession of Constables...unprecedented depth..." Paul Donovan, The Times
"This...adaptation of Charles Dickens' classic attack on greed is one of the most ambitious radio dramas of recent years..." Mail on Sunday
"To hear this was ten thousand times better than having to read it." Sue Gaisford, The Independent on Sunday
"John Dryden has pioneered in radio a kind of movie for the wireless, in which fast cutting, music and location recording are used to create pace and atmosphere...Outstanding production...Brilliant rethinking of the whole business of the classic serial..." Mark Lawson, Radio Times
