My lovely friend Bill let me know this morning that BBC7 has recently started airing banned works in their uncensored glory.
They started last Saturday with Lady Chatterley's Lover--with the voice talents of Lia Williams, Robert Glenister, and Roger Allam--and which you can listen to part one here.
In the coming weeks, they'll be broadcasting: Madam Bovary (Sarah Smart, John Hurt, Conrad Nelson), Animal Farm (Bill Nighy), Fahrenheit 451 (Michael Pennington), A Clockwork Orange (Jason Hughes, John McArdle, Jack Davenport), Women in Love (Clare Holman, Stella Gonet, Douglas Hodge, Nicholas Farrell), and Brave New World (Anton Lesser).
