Did anyone listen to the R4 afternoon play 'Inappropriate Relationships' last thurs? It's about child sexual exploitation and assumptions/generalisations about perps. I thought it was great and wondered if any of the rest of you had listened to it. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b08h3x49

Yes it's very good. Heard the 2nd ep today, there is 3 more to go. Rosie Cavaliero is excellent in the lead.

OOh I really enjoyed this in spite of the challenging content. Excellent writing & acting all round. Sean Dooley has such a distinctive voice and yet is always convincing in any role.

And I never saw the 'reveal' coming at all

Thank you for the recommendation. Anyone who wants to emasculate the BBC should spend a week listening to Radio 4.

Yes it got even better as it went on. As Rebus said, "The underworld is terrifying but not as much as the overworld", or words to that effect.

The reveal was brilliant, and totally unexpected.

Thank you BBC!

Who wrote it? Anyone know?

Am looking forward to listening.

Any idea why the iPlayer is so inconsistent for their book omnibi? I wanted to catch up on Be Like The Fox but it's in annoying 15 mins segments.

The writer is called Christopher Reason.

Btw I did catch up with Be Like The Fox and score it 10/10 on the boredom scale. At least I got an hour of homework done!
