Afternoon Play: Dot's Net

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

By Neil Monaghan. Dorothy, a cultured and erudite woman in her late sixties, feels abandoned by her son who has emigrated to America. He has paid for a home help, Maddy, to support her, and an online computer to keep in touch. But Dot is self-sufficient and an original Luddite and will have nothing to do with either. However, when Maddy accidentally switches on the computer, everything changes. A comic tale of manipulation in the internet age.
