  • The Lake Isle
    Jan 28 2026
    There are few things more mysterious in nature than an island in a lake. This psychological drama explores the pull and attraction of one such island in a Highland Loch which we view against the backdrop of the fracturing of a familial relationship. I will arise and go now, for always night and dayI hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey,I hear it in the deep heart’s core. W.B Yeats from his poem 'The Lake Isle of Innisfree' In the Lake Isle you heard Kelsey Griffin as Kirsty Monroe Sophie Macnair as Helena Monroe Carl Wharton as Mr Monroe Warren Graham as Michael, the counsellor Chris Gregory as the man in the coffee shop The Lake Isle was written by Chris Gregory with script review by Sophie Macnair and Kelsey Griffin Music, sound design and mixing were by Chris Gregory If you enjoy Spec Fic Radio Theatre you might enjoy other Alternative Stories podcast.
