Three-part BBC television miniseries about the notorious 18th
century lothario, written by Russell T. Davies and starring David
Tennant and Peter O'Toole. The aged Casanova (O'Toole) is living
out his days as the custodian of a library in Bohemia when he meets
young serving girl Edith (Rose Byrne). He begins to tell her about
his infamous escapades as a young man (played by Tennant), when he
scandalised Europe and was exiled from his native Venice for crimes
against the government and church. Wandering through Enlightenment
Europe, Casanova reinvents himself constantly as a poet,
philosopher, spy, black magician, petty conman and, of course,
lover, eventually incurring the wrath of the Venetian ambassador to
Britain, Grimani (Rupert Penry-Jones), after he falls in love with
his wife, Henriette (Laura Fraser). Wounded in a duel with Grimani,
Casanova returns home but is unable to forget the one woman he
truly loves.

Maeve Binchy is one of Britain's most popular and bestselling
authors, and this collection of four stories from the BBC Radio 4
archive shows her at her most insightful and imaginative. In The
Garden Party, Helen envies her neighbour Debbie Kennedy's garden -
and her life - but discovers that things are not always as they
seem; while The Special Sale sees lonely Yvonne arranging a special
lunch for her friend Frank and his children on the day after
Christmas. The Sensible Celebration finds Lorna about to throw a
small party to celebrate the decade gone by: but as she plans, she
starts to think about her life, and her marriage. Finally, in
Dolly's Mother, the beauty, grace and efficiency of her perfect
parent have always made Dolly feel inferior - until the day of her
sixteenth birthday. These four stories, never collected together in
book form and unique to audio, are read by acclaimed actors Niamh
Cusack, Dervla Kirwan, Doreen Hepburn and Stella McCusker. 1 CD. 57
