How's Your Mother?

BBC Radio 4 Extra - Turf Wars, How's Your Mother?

Will Humphrey Partridge continue to look after his mother?

Will Humphrey Partridge continue to look after his mother? By Simon Brett. Stars Michael Maloney. From March 2011.

In a gossipy village Humphrey Partridge is reckoned to be anti-social, indeed stand-offish. But he always has an excuse - namely that he has to look after his ailing elderly mother. It raises eyebrows at work. 

No-one has ever met the legendary matriarch. Not even nosy Raj the local postman. But then one morning when Humphrey is at work, Raj notices a fire in Humphrey's house, breaks in to put it out and makes an extraordinary discovery. 

Soon police are digging in Humphrey's garden. But just what is Humphrey's dark secret?

Written by Simon Brett.
