Jerusalem

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

A new three-part comedy by Simon Armitage, Britain's millennium poet, set in the fictional village of Jerusalem.

John Edward Castle is bedroom-bound, but that does not stop him from communicating to the village via his home-made transmitting device, otherwise known as Radio Castle. When the chance to stand as entertainment secretary at the social club arises, he feels confident of success.
