Millport: The Complete Series 1-3 - audiobook

All 18 episodes of the BBC radio sitcom about a thirtysomething barmaid living on a tiny Scottish islandIrene Bruce spends her days pulling pints in Millport, the only town on the Isle of Cumbrae, a few miles off the west coast of Scotland. Frustrated and going nowhere fast, she yearns to escape to the mainland for a better life - or at least a bit of fun. Just over the water, there are clubs, cinemas and discos, so why is she stuck at home with tea, Scrabble and her boring sister Moira?In these three series, Irene tries her hand at matchmaking, celebrates her 33rd birthday, faces a dilemma over a talking dog, and finds romance where she least expects it. And as Cumbrae is beset by strange events and emergencies - from a missing pensioner, to a threat to the local pub, to a media makeover that risks ruining the island's integrity - she keeps trying to leave town, and keeps being pulled back. But when push finally comes to shove, she's forced to consider where her heart really lies: on the mainland, or in Millport...Written by and starring Lynn Ferguson (No Angels, Chicken Run) as Irene, this bittersweet comedy drama boasts an all-Scottish cast and a panoply of vibrant, eccentric characters. Comedian and impressionist Janet Brown plays Moira, with Lewis MacLeod (Dead Ringers, Spitting Image) as cafe owner Alberto and Robert the Dog.Production creditsWritten by Lynn FergusonProduced by Lucy BaconMusic for series 2 & 3 arranged by Olly FoxFirst broadcast BBC Radio 4, 22 March-26 April 2000 (Series 1), 27 April-1 June 2001 (Series 2), 1 November-6 December 2002 (Series 3)CastIrene - Lynn FergusonMoira/Agnes - Janet BrownAlberto/Robert the Dog/Derek/Dieter/Ferryman/Dr Hume/Inspector/Morris/Mr Shetland/Mr Skye - Lewis MacLeodEna/Bunty/Betty/Diane/Fiona - Gabriel QuigleyDougie - Matt Costello/Kenneth BryansDJ/Gordon/Minister/Lucian Highburgh-Conner/Mr Dunoon/Mr Orkney- Robert PatersonHuberto/Mr Arran - Kenneth BryansBob - Lewis MacLeod/Robert Paterson(c)2021 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd (P)2021 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd
