The Go-Between
Summary
A new adaptation of L. P. Hartley's story of a boy who is betrayed by a sophisticated young rich woman and her farmer lover who use him to ferry letters back and forth in the blazing summer of 1900 - with Richard Griffiths and Harriet Walter. It's best known from the 1970 film, which focused on the main plot line. But on re-reading the book, adaptor Frances Byrnes found within it another drama perfect for audio in which an old man finds a boyhood diary and is forced to unlock the trauma inside. Revisited by that summer for the first time since it happened, the older man (Richard Griffiths) turns detective. Leo, in his 60s, finds a locked diary in his attic: It was written in 1900, the last time he lived with any sense of possibility. Leo realises that his tidy life has been a living death and that summer was to blame.

A Domestic
Summary
A family cleaner sees and hears everything, from the pill packet that signals that her employers are no longer trying for another child, to that unfamiliar earring in the marital bed that signals something altogether more worrying. In this five-part drama, two successful people, prosperous and happily married, pay little attention to their Polish domestic. Perhaps they should.... The Andersons seem to have a perfect marriage. Both lawyers, they have a lot in common, and laugh riotously at the antics their warring clients get up to. As well as being good friends, they are caring parents. Then one morning their cleaner, Mariola finds an earring in the marital bed. She looks closer. It belongs to Elena, the nanny. Peter Jukes' domestic thriller series stars Lydia Leonard, Neil Stuke and Clare Lawrence-Moody. Directed by Peter Kavanagh.
