Isn't that what I just said?

The stage production was brilliant whereas the uninspired and flat direction of the wireless adaptation had the verve of a schools radio drama and had me drifting off into What Anna Sewell Did in The Crimea and What Shall I Make For Tea.

This didn't happen at the Olivier production. But then, as I remarked, you couldn't see the Handspring puppets on t'wireless . . .
