Beatifully written, consummately observed, effortlessly witty

Customer Rating:

BBC Radio has produced a number of celebrated gems. But those with the most luster tend to be the ones still hidden to all but a few. Ed Reardon's Week is an example of this. The wry cynicism and yet, oddly, life-affirming stoicism imbued in the series provides a subtle mix of comedy, pathos and bathos which makes for wonderful listening. By series five, in between the laughs, you will truly care for Ed and his cat in a way that will surprise you and charm you in equal measure.

Sheer utter joy!

Customer Rating:

Ed Reardon is surely one of the finest comic creations of recent years. Like the equally funny Count Arthur Strong, Ed is angry about everyone and everything, but unlike the Count, is able to articulate his anger most eloquently. His (or, rather, Christopher Douglas's) use of the English language is on a par with the writing of the late, great Alan Coren. Listen, for example, to Ed's description of Shiraz wine! Very funny indeed.

Pulp Non-Fiction: Ed is an author, pipe-smoker, fare-dodger and master of the abusive email, and no writer knows more about freeloading than him.(BBC) Well written and performed. Best use of the radio format. Very funny. Check it out for yourself on BBC4 or BBC7 on the internet.
