Product Description
Product Description
Carleton Hobbs and Gerald Harper star in this thrilling BBC Radio 4 dramatisation of Arthur Conan Doyle's famous dinosaur tale. It's London, 1907. Journalist Edward Malone, rejected by the woman he loves because he is too prosaic, decides to go in search of adventure and fame to prove himself worthy of her. Soon after, he meets Professor George Challenger, a controversial scientist who claims to have discovered a 'lost world' populated by pterodactyls and other prehistoric monsters. At an inflammatory public lecture, an expedition is organised to find Challenger's rumoured world, and Malone volunteers to go along as a representative of the 'Gazette' newspaper. His arrival in South America signals the start of an epic journey of discovery that is more shocking and amazing than he could ever have imagined...

One of my boyhood favourite stories.
I've suffered through some of the most appalling TV and film adaptations only to find this being the most truthful presentation with, to my mind the most faithful acting characterisations, especially so with the great Professor Challenger.
Great radio. The BBC at it's best.

This dramatisation is fantastic. I listen to a great deal of radio drama and this is one of the favourites in my collection. It's true to the book and the characterisations are really brought to life by the actors. It is brilliantly atmospheric when it needs to be and also doesn't take itself too seriously.
The story is a cracker and it deserves to made into a blockbuster film rather the lame 1960's effort I have seen and the very poor made for TV mini-series. However, what I really would like to stress in this review is that although the production team had a great story to work with they have more than done it justice.
