Afternoon Theatre: It's a Very Small Place

on BBC Radio 4 FM

by Graham England
with June Barrie as Nellie Speroni

From the Clerk of the Rural District Council: 'My Chairman feels that this problem family most properly fall, as clients, to the County Council. Mrs Speroni has ... more children than there are members of this housing committee. And this authority is as equipped to deal with the Speronis ... as it is a plague of frogs.'
Nellie and her family live in a small West Country town in a condemned property and are waiting to be rehoused. But there are delays and the reasons for these delays are not always clear.
