Listened to this over the weekend. Clearly by a writer (@paulmagrs.bsky.social) with a real passion for Bowie and his work. Loved Sophie Cotton's music too, though I do have a small bias there as she's been creating the music for our dementia drama "Harry's Home"! www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

Everyone on this Norwich train seems to be having katsu curry for dinner.

Available now - the story of Phyllis Twigg the first radio dramatist. A light comedy drama about giving credit where it’s due: even if it takes 100 years. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

We're very proud of Aja Dodd, who has gone straight from Mulgrave Audio to BBC Radio 4! Kudos to director @soundliness.com, who heard Aja in our play 'Fellfoul' and cast her in 'The Truth About Phyllis Twigg', a charming and illuminating new play about the birth of radio drama. It's here...

Back at the Comedy Store last night for the first time in ages seeing off @neilmullarkey.com for his last show with the Comedy Store Players. Fun (of course), a great atmosphere in the room and it brought back lots of memories!

I *may* have about two lines in this ahem hem

Ridiculously pleased with myself for positing the theory months ago that this series of The Traitors would have a “sleeper” traitor (rather than secret). Though in my version the main three wouldn’t know about the fourth one! #TheTraitors

Listen to our Vaun! Features guest appearances from the mighty @michaelspicer.bsky.social and the divine @bobfischer.bsky.social !

I’ve had a busy few months for being on podcasts, but this one was a riot. Listen to Chelmsford’s Are you Creative podcast with Nick Hearne and Sangita Mittra and me. Apologies for the dolphin impression. Or monkey. They’re interchangeable. www.buzzsprout.com/2358430/epis...

Looking for some good audios to listen to this Christmas Eve? Samuel Barnett’s Unknown is back for a Christmas special: pod.link/1850303958 And ‘The Truth About Phyllis Twigg’ on radio 4 is an absolute joy. A radio drama about the first ever radio drama! www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

If you enjoyed “The Truth About Phyllis’s Twigg” you can hear cast and crew interviews and interviews with Phyllis and Arthur’s’ descendants on the latest episode of Paul’s podcast: podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/t...

A short interlude from promoting Phyllis Twigg now; a ghost story with an excellent cast, simple and effective execution and genuinely unsettling. Don’t turn out ALL your lights…

The story of the very first radio drama is not what you may think. The Truth About Phyllis Twigg, written by @paulkerensa.bsky.social & directed/produced by @soundliness.com is on BBC Radio 4 Christmas Eve 2.15pm Find out more on the @radioacademy.bsky.social #podcast audioboom.com/posts/881976...

I’m feral without my handbag.

Hey! Who loves a “behind the scenes” story? Writer @paulkerensa.bsky.social has kindly written about his experience with @b7media.bsky.social and radio drama in “The Truth About The Truth About Phyllis Twigg” www.b7media.com/the-truth-ab...

This was a really lovely event - and a proper celebration for a radio drama pioneer. Very much looking forward to The Truth About Phyllis Twigg on Christmas Eve. #JusticeForTwigg #RadioDrama #AudioDrama #BBCRadio4 www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

Lovely interview in the Northern Echo with Aja Dodd, who plays Jenny in @b7media.bsky.social’s “The Truth About Phyllis Twigg” on BBC Radio 4 this Christmas Eve. Shoutout to @bobfischer.bsky.social and @mulgraveaudio.bsky.social who found her first! 😁 www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/news/2570055...

The exquisite @michaelspicer.bsky.social (The Room Next Door) and the luxurious Bob Fischer (@hauntedgeneration.bsky.social ) have a part to play in ‘Clopper’! Which is our special sketch in the Xmas eve special of ‘Listen Through the Brown Window’!

As if I haven't got enough audio stuff on air this Christmas Eve, I'm in this too. Featuring special guest @michaelspicer.bsky.social

This is lovely. The darkly weird comedy podcast - with whom I have now been officially inducted as one of the troupe - has received a 5 brains review from Podcast Geek. At least, I hope they're brains. podcastgeek.blog/the-bad-old-...

More first radio dramatist stuff! #JusticeForPhyllis

Really UNIT? All those brilliant minds on the team and not one person thought to pop the thing that LITERALLY LOOKS LIKE A CARTOON BOMB through a simple airport security scanner before heading to the middle of the Atlantic?!

Really hoping to do gooderer at sums this Christmas if I’m given a pretty ladycalculator. shoddygoods.meh.com/p/math-for-h...

I can now say I shared being in a Christmas Radio Times with Wallace and Gromit. And I’ll very happily take “a charming tale of creativity and optimism”!

The latest B7 Media audio drama for BBC Radio 4, The Truth About Phyllis Twigg, is something of a Christmas treat and a bit of a BBC origin story too. Airing on BBC Radio 4 on Christmas Eve, it’s a… https://downthetubes.net/the-truth-about-phyllis-twigg-lifts-the-lid-on-secrets-of-early-bbc-radio/

Need a present for the 1980s fantasy fan in your life? Give our @mulgraveaudio.bsky.social play 'Fellfoul' a go... written by @andreworton.bsky.social, starring Aja Dodd and with music by Belbury Poly, it's a love letter to classic swords and sorcery. 10" vinyl comes with John Ridgway comic artwork!

Started watching my new Blake’s 7 season 1 enhanced FX box set last night. Couldn’t help thinking that if these were the enhanced FX the originals must have been even more shonky than I remembered. Of course I hadn’t toggled the new FX on in the menu had I? Idiot.

This is fascinating.

Our story of radio’s first dramatist is scheduled - on the 103rd anniversary of the play’s performance! Better late than never… www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

Very kind of @edgamblecomedy.bsky.social to humour me with this ridiculous photo this evening. Also thanks to Ed Gamble. #traitorsuncloaked

A key piece of radio history given its due finally @b7media.bsky.social @soundliness.com @amsewell.bsky.social @neilkbrand.bsky.social scifibulletin.com/2025/11/26/t...

I’m piggybacking off Paul’s post here, but he’s done it so well! A Radio 4 Christmas Eve drama I directed. See more below. #justiceforPhyllis

Can't seem to get backing for my film project "Noah: The Early Years". They all say the narrative lacks an ark.

A genuinely exciting reimagining of Dan Dare (I should know, I’ve read Alex’s script) and stunning art by Marc. Make sure you sign up ready for the Kickstarter launch - you won’t regret it.

My BEST Les Dawson face. My grandad would be proud.

This announcement is keeping us busy the day before @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social

This episode written (and recreated by @paulkerensa.bsky.social) directed and edited by me, all put together in just over a week! Have a listen, it’s lots of fun.

If you’re not doing a podcast then you’re voice tracking an online radio station. Guilty on both counts. But it’s soundtracks so thats all good then. Soundtrackradio.co.uk

October 31st…

Audio people are the BEST people. Lovely evening celebrating 40 years of The Soundhouse!

More comedy podcast nonsense from @soullessparty.bsky.social coming soon - as I do my best storytelling narrator voiceover and we learn what Stig of the Dump did when he grew up.

“Goodness gracious…”

“Linda Lusardi, Helen Lederer and me walked into a pub” “And?” “No, that’s it.”

BOOBIES! That got your attention. I don’t mean the birds. You’ll have to listen to find out why. Mark gets winky, I get kneaded by Paul Hollywood and Sam is confused by potatoes. Listen now to “The One With the Booby Winky Read” from @hdystpodcast.bsky.social now. podfollow.com/1668117379

Five drinks into the evening and we’re talking podcast ideas. “What Is It And Why is It Sticky?” We’ve got 20 episodes already.

Birthday present from my husband. I’m 50 today so I’m not sure if this is a warning or a threat. @gralefrit.bsky.social

It’s been a slower journey than we expected, but lots learned and definitely worth waiting for! @b7comics.bsky.social

Premium level radio and comedy geekiness tonight at the Water Rats pub with @paulkerensa.bsky.social and he didn’t even have a laser pointer. In true BBC style, repeats tomorrow.
