Before you listen to this BBC podcast I'd like to tell you about something else you might enjoy.

My name is Allison Hindle and I commission audio drama and fiction for the BBC.

It's a great privilege because I get to unearth stories people love.

You should see the books and scripts covering my floor,

from new talent and established writers as well as classics.

The BBC has such a rich history of making great audio drama,

we're still the largest producer in the world,

and the popularity of podcasts means we can share what we do with even more people.

So if you like to lose yourself in a gripping audio drama or book, find your next listen on BBC Sounds.

BBC Sounds, music radio podcasts.

You're listening to the TMS Podcast from BBC Radio 5 Live.

So real treat we have today,

our guest is a star of stage and screen appearing alongside the lights of Pierce Broznan,

Day Judy Dench, Bert Reynolds, Alan Lamb.
