Bleak Expectations

Join Anthony Head, Celia Imrie, Richard Johnson and Geoffrey Whitehead in 'Bleak Expectations' - a gloriously daft Victorian romp in the style of Charles Dickens after too much gin. First performed on the British Broadcasting Corporation's Radio 4.

Gasp at the evil Mr Gently Benevolent, played by Mr Anthony Head! Weep at the trials of our young hero Pip Bin, played by Master Tom Allen! Be moved to joy and sorrow by the remarkable narration of Mr Richard Johnson! Swoon at the fragile beauty of Pip's poor Mama, played by Miss Celia Imrie! Wonder at the thespian prowess of Mr Geoffrey Whitehead as six different siblings!
