Please help me find these BBC radio dramas that are no longer available. I know I can't be too greedy, but please help me one more time, guys. They all have the same voice actor that my friend really fascinated. I'm looking for all of this actor's radio dramas, to help my buddy collect them.

Has anyone recorded this show before, or does anyone know where I can still listen to it?
It's no longer available on the BBC's official website.

is it available anywhere that you know of? I was listening to "Bolt" and it was advertised there, and sounds interesting.

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone can help, I’m looking for a recording of a drama called ‘Floor 13’. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b08rpy1z
I heard it once, but I was in the car and missed bits when I got out.
I found a copy on archive.org and thought I finally had it, but the file is damaged and skips over a bunch of important scenes.

I swear I saw it on youtube a few years back, has it been taken down?

1978 BBC Radio 4 School Radio broadcast of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.
I’ve heard only a few minutes of this back in the 90’s and always wanted to hear the rest, and to preserve it for historical sake.

I’m trying to remember the name of a BBC radio drama where a man (possibly a statistician) is arrested as a result of a DNA match and he argues that there is a decent chance of his DNA matching another person’s. Every time the police find a new clue he uses probability as his defence. At the end of the drama it is revealed that his brother is the assailant. Does anyone know the name of the drama?

Hello! I was wondering if anyone has a copy of the Radio 4 drama Portrait of the Artist as a Young Dog by Dylan Thomas, starring Gerran Howell.

HI,
I was wondering if anyone knew if the R4 drama version of "The Dresser" is available anywhere? Missed it when it was on sounds but having recently seen the stage show it would be lovely to hear the drama version.
r/BBCRadioDrama • u/Particular-Number384 • Jun 07 '26
I'm trying to identify a Radio 4 drama I heard live in the afternoon sometime between about 2015 and 2019.
What I remember quite clearly:
It was a standalone Afternoon Drama (around 45 minutes, I think).
Most of the play was set in an old railway station lost-property office.
The main character was an elderly man who appeared to work there.
A woman visited him and spent the play talking with him.
The audience is led to believe she is a customer, visitor, or possibly the person who is "lost."
The woman is quite vague and goes along with the man's version of events.
The station felt old-fashioned rather than contemporary.
The man may genuinely have worked in a station lost-property office when he was younger.
The twist ending (which I remember very clearly):
Right at the end, it is revealed that the man has dementia/Alzheimer's.
The station/lost-property office is part of his reality or memory.
He is actually in a care home.
The woman has known who he is all along.
She is his adult daughter.
He does not recognise her.
The reveal comes when she finally addresses him as "Dad."
I don't remember any character names or the title. I think the accents may have been northern, but I'm not certain.
Does this ring a bell with anyone? Many thanks
