You are a gem. I had recorded three episodes of this serial and then had a power cut on the Friday morning. Series ruined or so I thought.
I will be listening to the whole story this weekend.

The stream recording of this set is pretty good quality.
Do not forget about the Listen Again at BBC, you can download or capture those streams also.
