Reviews

Gerard O’Donovan in the Daily Telegraph

• This Natural Life (BBC Radio 4) - “What a coup for Martha Kearney, to welcome none other than the King as the guest on this Christmas special. They meet at Dumfries House in Ayrshire where, over a walk in the walled garden, he reflects on his passionate interest in nature, conservation and the environment and chats about close-to-his-heart topics from school farms to topiary. Kearney also gets to meet some of the young people attending courses based on the estate.”

Lucy White in the Irish Independent 

• Katherine Ryan’s Christmas Intervention (Audible) - “Ryan’s naturally funny bones and inimitable sass are grounded by an unflinching relatability as she here relays the highs and lows of Christmas through her own experiences. Husband Bobby and teenage daughter Violet are assigned roles as the Ghosts of Christmas Future, like festive agony aunts advising on how to do Christmas better.”
• Charles Dickens: Ghost Stories (Noiser) - “David Suchet could read aloud Ikea instructions and make them sound like Shakespeare. And while Charles Dickens’s Ghost Stories (Acast, Apple, Pocket Casts, Spotify) are exceptional in the first place, the actor lends star wattage over some chilling tales.”
