RECORDING FOR THE BBC

Yesterday Emily, Jade and me finished recording a radio drama for the BBC.  It is called ‘Archie Dobson’s War’ written by Rob John and produced by the lovely Marie Crook and Stuart Fyfe.   It will be transmitted in January and it is a really moving story.  I will let you know the transmission dates later.   Marie and Stuart and everybody involved were lovely and they made us very welcome and comfortable.   I met up with Stephanie Racine who played my aunt on this project, she played my mum on a previous drama for the BBC, called ‘Storm’ and Harry Jardine who played my cousin was also in the BBC production of ‘The world according to Garp’ which we recorded  in November.

I spent a lot of time talking to Scott Joseph, who played my uncle,  who does a lot of radio productions and he told me all sorts of interesting things and was really helpful about being a radio actor.  Thank you to Laura Hyde for sorting all the arrangements.

From left to right it is Emily, Jade and me.  We all go to the same school,  www.susiearnshaw.co.uk and we are also regular presenters on the internet radio provided via EN5radio.com and the programme is called Theyoung1s and it is on every Wednesday between 4 p.m. to 6. p.m. you can listen live at  www.theyoung1s.co.uk and hear what young people debate about with some good songs thrown in.
