01 Feb 12 - 04:25 AM (#3300112) Subject: RE: Saturday Private Peaceful on BBC Radio 4 From: GUEST,Georgina Boyes To answer the question on the other thread. No, it's a new adaptation of 'Private Peaceful' - the earlier one was Michael Morpurgo narrating his own (shortened) version of his story. The play is an adaptation of the story by Simon Reade and is acted rather than a narration. Coope Boyes & Simpson provide the music for both though. Georgina |

It was even better than I had expected,given that I had been looking forward to it all week. Make sure you access "Listen again" if you're in the UK and you can! I wish more radio drama had a traditional music leit-motif embedded in them.... |
