The Monday Play: Joking Apart

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Another chance to hear Alan Ayckbourn 's dark comedy from 1978, starring Pam Ferris and Malcolm Raeburn
Set in the garden of a successful couple's spacious home, the play moves through the seasons over a 12-year time span and focuses on the effect of good-natured generosity and hospitality on some of life's losers.
