Book at Beachtime returns to Radio 4

Book at Beachtime is to return to the BBC Radio 4 Extra schedules this summer with a selection of stories by Sophie Kinsella, Jenny Rooney and Suzanne Rindell.

The series begins on Monday the 1st of July on BBC Radio 4 Extra at 2.30pm with Sophie Kinsella’s Wedding Night. Read by Sarah Alexander as Fliss and Sophia di Martino as Lottie, Kinsella’s new novel is a recipe for romantic mishap and enjoyable entanglements.

Caroline Raphael, Commissioning Editor, BBC Radio 4 and Radio 4 Extra says: “Radio 4 Extra is full of stories. We scour the BBC archives for the dramas, best novels, short stories and works of non-fiction. But this is our summer treat – three gripping new books delightfully well read. Take your digital radio or smartphone out into the sun and enjoy.”

Book at Beachtime will be on BBC Radio 4 Extra weekdays at 2.30pm for 1st – 19th July 2013. All episodes will also be available on BBC iPlayer for seven days after broadcast.
