Afternoon Play: The Big Marrow

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

By Carina Rodney. Dreams are encouraged in the Shelby household; showbiz stardom, ballroom dancing and the biggest marrow in all England. But when prize-winning vegetables are sabotaged, fat dancers rejected and ventriloquists beaten up, the only person that can hold it together is mum. But mum's got a deadly secret and nobody's listening.
