Martin Jarvis directs Michael Frayn’s masterly comic series with an outstanding cast led by Ian McKellen, Joanna Lumley, Stephen Fry, Alfred Molina, Alex Jennings and Jarvis himself.
Michael Frayn - author of Noises Off - is the most comic philosophical writer of our time.
Each episode reveals his infectious delight in writing between the lines of theatre, fiction, TV and the media, the church, relationships - life in general.
* Stephen Fry gives smug thanks to God
* Matthew Wolf and Martin Jarvis become mute mime-artists (yes on the radio)
* Nigel Anthony invites sponsorship for doing precisely nothing
* Sir Ian McKellen as God conducts his own prayer-answering service
* Rosalind Ayres provides a tetchy update to your Pocket Playhouse.
Director: Martin Jarvis
