    The Trial of Ruth Ellis: A Mr Punch True Crime Drama 
     
    “Mr Punch is going from strength to strength, continuing their good run of classy audio… Jemma Redgrave gives a spirited performance… with a high calibre cast”  Talking Business 
     
    In the annals of British justice, there exists a story that has stood the test of time, a tale of passion, despair, and a fateful twist of destiny. In the turbulent summer of 1955, the nation held its collective breath as Ruth Ellis, a mother of two, faced conviction for the calculated murder of her unfaithful lover, David Blakely. 
     
    This is the gripping true story of a woman on the edge. 
     
    Drawing exclusively from the original trial transcripts, eyewitness testimonies and contemporary reports, we invite you to join the jury at the Old Bailey tasked with unravelling the truth behind the events leading up to that fatal Easter Sunday when Mrs Ellis fired six fatal shots, shattering the calm of Hampstead and sealing her place in history as the last woman to be hanged in Britain. 
     
    Almost seven decades since her execution, Ruth Ellis's story still captivates and haunts. Who was this former model and nightclub hostess who dared to venture into the elite world of 1950s London? Why did she endure an abusive liaison with the charismatic yet dangerous racing driver David Blakely? What compelled her to take the life of the man she loved? 
     
    Starring JEMMA REDGRAVE as Ruth Ellis with Terence Edmond, David Goodland, Mark Hadfield, Jenny Howe, Jeffrey Segal, Robin Welch, Andrew Wincott and full supporting cast 
     
    Also available as part of the Great British Trials Box Set, a fascinating eight-hour collection of true crime dramas, featuring the trials of Ruth Ellis, Dr Crippen, Timothy Evans & John Reginald Halliday Christie.

    In the Victorian age that great adventurer Phileas Fogg attempted to traverse the globe in a mere 80 days using only the existing transport infrastructure and his own nous.    
     
    Today the globe can be spanned much quicker and in more comfortable fashion but alas without much of the intrigues, stories and landscape that accompanied Mr Fogg and made the trip so exciting. 
     
    In this volume we have an answer: Let’s travel the globe with the words and verse of 80 esteemed and voluble poets.  Let’s explore places, peoples, philosophical musings on our world and all manner of things that Mr Fogg had no access to.  With the words of classic poets such as John Keats, Rabindranath Tagore, Du Fu and Edna St Vincent Millay as your companions it’s one heck of a journey.

    Jane Eyre may be poor, obscure, plain and little, but she has heart and soul – and plenty of it.
    Chris Bush's witty and fleet-footed adaptation lays bare the beating heart of Charlotte Brontë's classic novel, whilst staying true to its revolutionary spirit.
    With actor-musicians, playful doubling, and a plethora of nineteenth-century pop hits, it was first produced at the Stephen Joseph Theatre, Scarborough, and the New Vic Theatre, Newcastle-under-Lyme, in 2022, directed by Zoë Waterman.

    "Stories From The Faerie Queene" is a retelling or abridged version of Edmund Spenser's epic poem "The Faerie Queene," which is a richly imaginative allegorical work dedicated to celebrating the Tudor dynasty and Elizabeth I. The poem, originally published in the late 16th century, weaves tales of knights, dragons, maidens, and quests to represent virtues and human struggles. The stories within are adaptations of Spenser's intricate stanzas into prose or shorter narratives that make the text more accessible while maintaining its magical and moral complexity.
