Opposite the Cross Keys (1) by SYLVIA HAYMON abridged in 12 episodes byDOREENMAHON.
Read by Pam Ferris.
In a humorous, unsentimental, crystal-clear memory of her childhood, award-winning crime novelist Sylvia Haymon recalls how, as the 7-year-old darling of a middle-class
Norwich family, she could scarcely believe her luck at being allowed to stay with her nurserymaid's family in their cottage opposite the Cross Keys pub. But Sylvia's mother had understood nothing of the fierce rural poverty of the 1920s.... Producer NIGEL BRYANT BBC Pebble Mill
