COLLINS THEATRE PRODUCTIONS OF ROALD DAHL'S WORK (HARPER COLLINS AUDIO)
Taken from cassette recordings. No audio enhancement/noise reduction.
Encoded in MP3 Format at 128kbps 44 Hz Stereo. Total Size is 618MB.
These dramatisations are around 20 years old and may not be on a parr with
those undertaken by the BBC or Puffin Audio, but they do however include
dramatisations of works the latter two did not dramatise. That is
'The Twits'& 'Esio Trot'. They also include the very best of British
acting talent, notably the likes of Andrew Sachs, Bernard Cribbins,
Michael Williams, Annette Crosbie etc.
They are a must for any Roald Dahl fan and collector of radio drama.
They are unlikley to ever be re-issued again in any format.
I hope you enjoy them and continue to share them with others.
