  This is the brand new first series of the audio revival of classic comedy Chelmsford 123, Hat Trick’s first official production for Channel 4.Chelmsford 123 was originally a two-series sitcom set in Roman Britain that brought memorable characters, strong gags and hilarious storylines to the small screen. Using the original scripts as foundation, these four episodes contain all-new material written by Rory McGrath and Jimmy Mulville and are perfect for both fans of the series as well as anyone looking for a bit of comic relief… so come back with us to 123 AD for a generous dose of historical humour.Episode 1 - Arrivederci Roma: It’s 123 AD and the people of Britain are about to receive a new governor from Rome - Aulus Paulinus. This is not the greatest news for the local Trinovantes tribe, so their leader - Badvoc - plots a ‘welcome’ party.Episode 2 - What’s Your Poison?: Whilst Aulus plans a great banquet to improve relations with the local leaders, Grasientus plots to poison Badvoc. Each side hears word of the treachery and believes it aimed at them.Episode 3 - One For The Road: Aulus Paulinus intends to put his mark on Britain by constructing a grand Roman road direct between Londinium and Chelmsford - but there’s a seemingly insignificant settlement in the way.Episode 4 - Heads You Lose: After a trip to inspect the fortifications against the border of Caledonia, Aulus has had enough of Badvoc’s liberty-taking and has him imprisoned under sentence of death. Is this the end of the (Roman) road for Badvoc?Chelmsford 123: The Audio Revival is produced by Hat Trick Productions and Spiteful Puppet Entertainment.

  Jen Flanders here. Just another starving artist in New York City. I walk dogs for money, practice yoga for sanity, and hit up my friends at a local bakery to supplement my diet. Unfortunately, rent is due and I'm running out of cash. 
   
   
   
  After begging the universe for a sign that help is on the way, my phone pings with a text. 
   
   
   
  GOD: You can do it; I believe in you! 
   
   
   
  Wait?! GOD is texting me? I know it sounds crazy, but I'm so desperate, I'm willing to believe just about anything right now. So, I ask him for help. 
   
   
   
  On the first day of texting, he gets me a job that will keep me afloat. On the second day, he hooks me up with a killer wardrobe. And on the third, he agrees to meet me at a pub to discuss my future. 
   
   
   
  Only, it turns out GOD isn't a deity, but a divinely handsome lawyer named Gabriel Oliver Daily, who thinks he's been helping out his friend's little sister. He's the man of my dreams, but it's never going to happen between us because I'm a whack-a-doodle who thinks she's been texting the Lord himself, and, I don't know how to explain that to him. Plus, he's got a serious girlfriend, and they're perfect for each other. 
   
   
   
  Although, I'm learning things aren't always as they appear . . .

  She’s a Lamb! - A Novel

  A darkly comic suspense in the vein of All’s Well and Yellowface, She’s a Lamb! is an edgy and incisive novel that marches toward showtime with a growing unease about the dangers of magical thinking and the depths of delusion
  		 
  Jessamyn St. Germain is meant to be a star. Not an actor who occasionally books yogurt commercials and certainly not a lowly usher at one of Vancouver’s smallest regional theaters. No, she is bound for greatness, and that’s why the part of Maria in the theater’s upcoming production of The Sound of Music is hers. Or it’s going to be.
  		 
  Jessamyn may have been relegated to the position of childminder for the little brats playing the von Trapp children, but it’s so obvious she’s there for a different reason — the director wants her close to the role so when Samantha, the lead, inevitably fails, Jessamyn will be there to take her place in the spotlight.
  		 
  This must be it. Because if it isn’t, well, then every skipped meal, every brutal rehearsal, every inch won against a man attempting to drag her down will have all been for nothing.
  		 
  Sharp, relentless, and darkly funny, She’s a Lamb! is a cutting satire about the grotesque pall patriarchy casts over one woman’s delusional quest to achieve her dreams and the depths she will sink to for a chance at the life she’s convinced she deserves.

  Holland My Heart - A slow-burn...

  You know those stress inventories where you check off life's biggest disasters? Yeah, I've lost count. 
  In just one year, I lost my husband (and his brother), sold our home, moved across the country, quit my job, and watched my sister-in-law, who also happens to be my best friend, move away. So, here I am—twenty-seven, an MBA with no job, and a heart held together by sheer willpower. 
  And that's when Naomi, my mother-in-law, who also happens to be my best friend, introduces me to Kai Ipu. He's her oldest and dearest friend, a ridiculously successful, devastatingly handsome Black-Samoan CEO who built a corporate consulting firm from the ground up. He's older, brilliant, and way out of my league. So, obviously, I don't have to worry about falling for him, right? 
  Then he offers me a job. And I never back down from a challenge. 
  Loosely inspired by the Book of Ruth, Holland, My Heart is a full-length (7 hours, 46 minutes) contemporary romance about love after loss, second chances, and figuring out what comes next when your whole life falls apart. With sharp banter, f-bombs from Kai, a drunken confession of adoration, and just the right amount of spice, this slow-burn, witty standalone romance is perfect for fans of heartfelt, character-driven love stories.
