About this episode

The episode revisits Barry Letts's novelisation of 'The Paradise of Death' with interviews and audio excerpts.

Power of 3 listeners with long memories will recall we previously looked at the Jon Pertwee radio episodes in our 121st episode. Three years and 440 episodes later, we're putting it back under the microscope again, as we look at Barry Letts's novelisation of his own work. We feature archive interviews with Barry, BBC radio excerpts, a five minute reading of the audiobook, plus narrator Jon Culshaw drops by too. And, we get hints for the future of the BBC Audiobooks range from editor Michael Stevens.
