“Bah! Humbug!” Enjoy a new abridged audiobook adaptation of Charles Dickens' most famous novella, A Christmas Carol. Christmas Eve. As everyone prepares for the start of the festive holidays with joy and excitement, one man is ready to greet it with bitterness and scorn. A man with more cruelty, callousness and coldness in his heart than any other creature who walks the earth. His name? Ebenezer Scrooge. But tonight, this lost, dark soul will receive a ghostly figure from beyond the grave, warning Ebenezer that his bitter nature must now face the true spirit of Christmas, or forever be damned... A story of goodwill and humanity, this timeless tale returns to remind us of that much needed spirit of kindness and compassion, and that, even in our darkest days, we can all rediscover the light. Read by Jenny Runacre, directed and produced by Jack Bowman. NARRATOR: JENNY RUNACRE RUNNING TIME: 2 hours 57 min Minor abridgements have been made for timing purposes of this audiobook

Too noble to be executed, in 1610 the ‘Bloody Lady of Cachtice’ was bricked up in a set of rooms in her own castle in Slovakia. Why then should the young and beautiful Katya be at the castle door attracting the close attention of the gaoler and wanting a job looking after Countess? Is it revenge or some more ghostly visit from Bathory’s past? And if she should help her escape….

This is an original 60-minute audio play (with songs), featuring professional actors, with cameos from presenters on BBC Radio 4, BBC Radio Gloucestershire and Sky Arts 1, that deals with the illness M.E. as its focal point. It is written by a sufferer and it specifically addresses what happens to relationships around an individual who is stricken by the illness and should educate those that don’t know much about this life-threatening condition.

Actor/Director/Writer and M.E. sufferer, Barnaby Eaton-Jones said: “The script was first written in 1992, which makes this the 20th anniversary of that event. But, a lot has changed since then. It was often sad, very frustrating and constantly bewildering to read so much new research since the play was last performed and find that there isstill prejudice, wrong informatio
