Language: EnglishKeywords: BBC Drama Radio Written by Sir Walter Scott Format: MP3 Bitrate: 128 Kbps Dramatization Sir Walter Scott (1771 â 1832), was a Scottish novelist, poet and historian. Many of his works remain classics of European and Scottish literature, notably the novels Ivanhoe (1819), Rob Roy (1817), Waverley (1814), Old Mortality (1816), The Heart of Mid-Lothian (1818), and The Bride of Lammermoor (1819). His work had a major impact on European and American literature, influencing among others Balzac, Dostoevsky, Flaubert, Tolstoy, Dumas, Twain and Pushkin. Collected here is Clive Brillâs BBC Radio series The Great Scott which dramatises nine of Scottâs novels. David Tennant provides narration as the voice of Scott, the collection includes a mixture of conventional and experimental adaptations. The Fair Maid of Perth A beautiful glover’s daughter is romantically pursued by a warmongering blacksmith, a poetising prince, a hot-headed clansman and a bumbling bonnet-maker in lawless 14th century Scotland. Feeble King Robert III is failing to stop his beloved country being torn apart by warring clans and pillaging nobles - chaos reigns supreme. When our heroine, Catharine Glover, suffers heartbreak and tragedy at the hands of the vengeful Earl of March, a terrible dilemma presents itself. Should she follow the dictates of her heart by marrying the man she loves - or should she obey her father’s wish and shun a world of ‘hard iron and barbaric cruelties’ by betrothing herself to Christ? Walter Scott …… David Tennant Catherine Glover …… Morven Christie Her father …… Hugh Ross Henry Smith …… Bryan Larkin King Robert …… Clive Russell The Earl of March …… Kenneth Cranham Oliver Proudfoot …… Forbes Masson Conachar …… Callum O’Neil Louise the Minstrel …… Olivia Morgan A citizen …… Richard Hansell Written by Sir Walter Scott Adapted by Scott Cherry Directed by Clive Brill First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in April 2013 Rob Roy This version of Rob Roy has dispensed with the Jacobite setting and updates the story to the 20th century. It is 1924 and 20-year-old Frank falls foul of his father. He has spent a year in Paris, supposedly learning the business, but actually hanging out with Imagist poets. When he refuses to join the business his father sends him north to stay with his Uncle - a radical and mixed up in the cause of Irish Nationalism. Scott’s tale doesn’t really depend on the historical trappings on which the author’s reputation now rests. A son being banished by his father because he wants to be a long-haired poet is a perennial situation, as is the love-triangle between Frank, Die Vernon and her wicked cousin Rashleigh.

It’s 1745 and 21-year-old Edward Waverley, a newly commissioned red-coat officer, is posted to Scotland on the eve of Bonnie Prince Charlie’s violent bid for power. His father is a rising minister in the ruling Hanoverian state, but the beloved Uncle who brought him up is an old Jacobite, loyal to the exiled Stewart dynasty. Waverley falls in love with two very different Scottish girls - the cautious, loyalist, lowlander Rose Bradwardine, and the fiery highland rebel Flora. He goes AWOL for Flora just as her brother Fergus is rallying their clan to fight for Charlie. When Waverley is accused by his Commanding Officer of a treasonable flirtation with the enemy, he joins the uprising in a fit of pique and helps defeat an English army at the battle of Prestonpans. When he finds out that he has caused the arrest of Uncle, he returns to London to try to clear his name.

Will his knowledge allow Lovel to marry his secret love? This story is about an amateur historian, archaeologist and collector of items of dubious antiquity. Although he is the eponymous character, he is not necessarily the hero, as many of the characters around him undergo far more significant journeys or change. Instead, he provides a central figure for other more exciting characters and events â on which he provides a sardonic commentary.

It is London in 2011. Protestors with an almost ecstatic belief in the possibility of change aim to seize the holiest of places â the London Stock Exchange â but theyâre beaten back and forced to set up camp outside. The protestors of Occupy come to the conclusion â as winter sets in â about sleeping on the cold, wet flagstones of St.Paul’s Churchyard and start to feel that itâs time to pack up and go home.
