About this listen

Ian Carmichael is Lord Peter Wimsey in these consummate BBC radio dramatisations of Dorothy L Sayers' much-loved mysteries

Elegant, erudite and sharp-witted, aristocratic detective Lord Peter Wimsey featured in numerous novels and short stories by ‘Queen of Crime’ Dorothy L Sayers. These full-cast adaptations – first broadcast on BBC radio between 1975 and 1981– are loved by mystery fans all around the world.

In The Unpleasantness at the Bellona Club, when General Fentiman is found dead at his club, Wimsey suspects foul play. Could he have been murdered for his money?

Strong Poison introduces Harriet Vane – a crime novelist on trial for murdering her lover. Wimsey knows Harriet is no femme fatale, but an innocent victim embroiled in a diabolical plot…

Five Red Herrings sees Peter faced with six men, all of whom have a motive for killing argumentative Scottish painter Sandy Campbell. But who was the culprit?

In Have His Carcase, when Harriet Vane finds a body on the beach with his throat cut, Lord Peter must work out whether it was murder or suicide.

These classic dramas also feature Peter Jones, Joan Hickson, Miriam Margolyes and Warren Clarke.

This is the second volume of BBC dramatisation of the Lord Peter Wimsey stories. I prefer well read unabridged books, but these adaptations were excellent and it is always nice to hear them again.

Very Enjoyable

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

I found it difficult to hear Woimsey’s voice some of the time (I listen while driving), but everyone else was perfectly clear.

Story as expected, audio sometimes not clear

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Apart from the end of chapter credits and start of chapter résumés this is an excellent listen.

Listened again, enjoyed it again.

This second volume lives magnificently up to the first, with bravura performances in the roles of Lord Peter, Bunter and Harriet Vane, beautifully supported by a range of superb character actors. On with volume three!

Far More than just Whimsy!

Really exciting adaptation of Dorathy L Sayers mystery stories, loads of life and drama went into them. All the cast are just brilliant.
