Summary
1989, and Anne moves to a new house in a new town with her husband and baby. Life seems unremarkable, until one day she’s prodded in the back and hears a refined voice in her ear… but there’s no-one there.
It happens again, and then again. Is Anne's imagination getting the better of her? Or does something want her attention?
Written and presented by Danny Robins Editing and sound design: Charlie Brandon-King Music: Evelyn Sykes Script editor: Dale Shaw Theme music by Lanterns on the Lake Produced by Danny Robins and Simon Barnard
