Delighted this evening's Illuminated: Voices From the Beach is pick of the week in the Radio Times. Apparently Saili Katebe, Monica Whitlock and I have made a 'lyrical wave of audio' (I see what they've done there...). 7.15pm on Radio 4 then @bbcsounds

www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m... Celebrate the opening of the World Cup by spending 45 surreal minutes inside the feverish head of Albert Camus as he navigates self-doubt, the offside rule and various intrusive helpful / unhelpful major philosophers during a critical match. 2.15pm today on BBC Radio 4.
For those who might have missed it in the West End or in cinemas, #othello from Chris Harper Productions is now streaming on Marquee Arts TV. With Caitlin Fitzgerald, David Harewood, Toby Jones & Vinette Robinson; dir. Tom Morris; designed by Ti Green; sound design by me; music by PJ Harvey with me
Coming soon to BBC Radio 4 ! Albert Camus fends off strikers, self-doubt and a nasty cough, whilst fielding not-entirely helpful suggestions from a whole gaggle of famous philosophers who seem somehow to have invaded the pitch (no Monty Python jokes please..). With Arthur Darvill & Cecilia Appiah.
That's a wrap! Back from a few lovely days not-in-the-studio with the mighty @almost-tangible.bsky.social recording The School Run: new drama coming soon to BBC Radio 4. Props to the cast for amiably running continuously in 30C heat while wearing a bewildering array of microphones.

Just noticed Our Friends In The North, on which I was a very happy part of the sound design gang, is having another outing on Radio 4 at the moment; catch ep3 at 2.15 today. Adapted for radio by the original writer Peter Flannery and produced by Mel Harris.
Chance encounters and unexpected conversations on the beach with poet Saili Katebe.
Arthur Darvill plays almost everyone with ‘tremendous elan ‘in a ‘tour de force’ (Radio Times). Pick of the week in the RT, Guardian, Times & Daily Mail.
