    The North Remembers

    The North Remembers

    By Samantha Harvey. Mum drives through the Dark Hedges, crossing a threshold into a different world. Read by Deirdre Mullins.
    Topical fiction inspired by the story, in this week's news, that some of the beech trees that line the Bregagh Road in Armoy, County Antrim, have been felled amid concern for public safety. The trees, a landmark in their own right, were made more famous after featuring in the fantasy drama Game of Thrones.
    Samantha won the Betty Trask Prize for her first novel The Wilderness, which was longlisted for the Man Booker, and shortlisted for the Orange Prize and the Guardian First Book Award. Her work has been described by critics as 'spectacular', 'beautiful' and 'profound', and her latest novel, 'Orbital', an 'awe-inspiring and humbling love letter to Earth', has been selected by The Guardian as one of the most important books of 2023.
    Producer: Mary Ward-Lowery

    Gaslight - Episode 1

    Gaslight - Episode 1

    Atmospheric drama from BBC Radio 4 with bonus scenes for BBC Sounds, featuring original music by Imelda May.
    Have you ever wondered where the term 'gaslighting' comes from? Find out in episode 1 of this dark reimagining of the classic 1938 stage thriller by Patrick Hamilton. To hear the series in full, just search for Gaslight in BBC Sounds.
    Jonathan Holloway's modern adaptation is set in the present, with a deliciously vintage feel.
    Jack Manningham has used his wife’s recently inherited money to buy a huge period property - a former bell foundry - which they will renovate. They occupy a small habitable part of the ground floor and basement. This previously neglected ramshackle building is lit by gas, as it was in Victorian times.
    In this first episode, Jack and Bella find a house that suits them and there's a lot riding on the screening of their latest film.
    Cast in order of appearance:
    Tippi Griffiths ..... Lacey Turner
    Jack Manningham ..... James Purefoy
    Bella Harding ..... Rebecca Night
    Ishani Rawe / Izzy ..... Macadie Amoroso
    DCI Nina Rawe ..... Cathy Tyson
    DI Reynolds / Michael McLennon / Chris De Jeanne ..... Richard Lintern
    Written by Jonathan Holloway, based on the original play by Patrick Hamilton
    Music: Imelda May with Tim Bran
    Produced by Sally Harrison with James Purefoy
    Directed by Johnny Vegas
    A Woolyback production in association with Darling Pictures, for BBC Radio 4 and BBC Sounds
