"He then started his return journey bearing back to bed with him, for reasons more
to do with Latour than logic, his toothbrush. The result was that when he tripped
over his cat he stabbed himself severely injuring, though fortunately not blinding,
his right eye. Another alternative to champagne, and this one may surprise you, is
Asti Spumante. At its best it is wonderful, especially with puddings. Try to get hold
of a bottle by Giu ..."

"Much like Richard Adams's wonderful novel, this animated tale of wandering rabbits is not meant for small children. It is, however, rich storytelling, populated with very real individuals inhabiting a very real world. The animation is problematic, sometimes appearing out of proportion or just subpar; but it seems to stem from an attempt at realism, something distinguishing the film's characters from previous, cutesy, animated animals. A ..."
"A Christian can almost be forgiven for not reading the Bible, but there's no salvation for a fantasy fan who hasn't read the gospel of the genre, JRR. Tolkien's definitive three-book epic, The Lord of the Rings (encompassing The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and The Return of the King), and its charming precursor, The Hobbit. That many (if not most) fantasy works are in some way derivative of Tolkien is understood, but the inf ..."

"Thrilling full-cast radio dramatisations of three of Charles Dickens' classic novels.

"Simon Cadell and Imelda Staunton star in this BBC Radio 4 production of Shaw's famous play. When phonetics tutor and linguist Henry Higgins meets Cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle, he makes a bet with his friend Colonel Pickering that he can teach her to speak so well that she will be able to pass herself off as a duchess at a society ball. Eliza agrees, seduced by promises of chocolates and taxi rides - but her transformation from ca ..."
"This 1986 BBC Radio production of George Bernard Shaw's world famous play stars Simon Cadell, Imelda Staunton, and James Grout. The inspiration for the film My Fair Lady, Pygmalion is the story of Professor Henry Higgins' cultivation of the decidedly unrefined Eliza Doolittle."
"Hobbits and wizards and Sauron--oh, my! Mild-mannered Oxford scholar John Ronald Reuel Tolkien had little inkling when he published The Hobbit; Or, There and Back Again in 1937 that, once hobbits were unleashed upon the world, there would be no turning back. Hobbits are, of course, small, furry creatures who love nothing better than a leisurely life quite free from adventure. But in that first novel and the Lord of the Rings trilogy, th ..."

"Evelyn Waugh was one of literature's great curmudgeons and a scathingly funny satirist. Scoop is a comedy of England's newspaper business of the 1930s and the story of William Boot, a innocent hick from the country who writes careful essays about the habits of the badger. Through a series of accidents and mistaken identity, Boot is hired as a war correspondent for a Fleet Street newspaper. The uncomprehending Boot is sent to the fiction ..."
"Our Mutual Friend was the last novel Charles Dickens completed and is, arguably, his darkest and most complex. The basic plot is vintage Dickens: an inheritance up for grabs, a murder, a rocky romance or two, plenty of skullduggery, and a host of unforgettable secondary characters. But in this final outing the author's heroes are more flawed, his villains more sympathetic, and the story as a whole more harrowing and less sentimental. T ..."
