The Friday Play: Connecting

on BBC Radio 4 FM

1/4. The World in My Ear. This play, by Paul Farley , begins a series of dramas about the impact of communication and information technology on our lives.
Fiddling with his MP3 player and not looking where he was going, a man in his 40s has fallen down the stairs of Oxford Street tube station in the centre of London. He seems to have died and gone to some sort of radio heaven where the sound history of the world can be accessed - as long as the right technology is available.
The series of plays continues on Tuesday at 2.15pm.
