AudioGO was having site difficulties yesterday, so I was expecting them to extend the Deal period again, but no go (no pun intended, but taken advantage of anyway).
The final two Deals for Friday the 23rd and Saturday the 24th are:
Friday 23rd, good until Saturday 10am UK time, is the holiday special for the popular BBC Radio comedy
I'm Sorry I Haven't A Christmas Clue,
2h30 mins for £2.29 (less without VAT, down from £6.62).
The celebrated 'I'm Sorry I Haven't a Christmas Carol', plus a look back at festive Clues from bygone years.
Originally broadcast on Christmas Day 2003, the 'I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue' Players present their unique interpretation of Dickens' 'A Christmas Carol', starring Humphrey Lyttelton as Ebenezer Scrumph, Colin Sell as his downtrodden assistant Crotchet, and Graeme Garden, Tim Brooke-Taylor and Barry Cryer as the Ghosts of Christmas Future, Present and P*ssed. This Yuletide extravaganza is not to be missed!
Plus, there's a generous stockingful of silly games and pointless revelry from the merry gentlemen of the Clue team, including some memorable moments from the much-missed Willie Rushton. Join them for a feast of festive fun with all the seasonal trimmings.
For Saturday the 24th, good until 10 am UK time on Xmas Sunday, the Deal will be
Christmas Book at Bedtime: The Complete Series, a set of 8 BBC Radio readings of festive short stories done by well-known UK actors,
1h50mins for £1.75 (less without VAT, down from £6.79).
Eight seasonal stories from BBC Radio 4's 'Book at Bedtime'. Everyone loves a bedtime story. And here are eight of the best, each with a Christmas theme, written by an array of literature's best-known names: Laurie Lee, Charles Dickens and Hans Christian Andersen are just some of the storytellers included in this collection. Amongst those giving voice to these stories are Patricia Routledge, Joss Ackland, Miriam Margolyes, Dame Judi Dench and Richard Briers.
Intriguing, funny, poignant and above all entertaining, these eight Christmas stories are the best of BBC Radio 4's 'Book at Bedtime'.
I hope some of you* were able to take advantage of the savings on stuff you might have wanted, and happy listening if you did!
* Okay, more than one of you.
