In these six new pieces Alan Bennett retains the gripping stories, intensity of delivery and masterly style of his original monologues. The suburban normality of the world his characters inhabit once again belies their lives of secrets, revelations, fears, crimes and passions. They tell their stories, and in doing so reveal more than they know of the humour, passion and sadness of their lives.

Included in this collection is Miss Fozzard Finds her Feet, with Patricia Routledge The Hand of God, withEileen Atkins Playing Sandwiches, withDavid Haig The Outside Dog, withJulie Walters Nights in the Gardens of Spain, with Penelope Wilton Waiting for the Telegram, with Thora Hird
