Title: Charles Paris: So Much Blood: A BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation Series: Part of Charles Paris Dramatisations Author: Simon Brett, Jeremy Front Narrator: Jon Glover, Suzanne Burden, Bill Nighy, Full Cast Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 51 minutes Release date: July 6, 2023 Genres: Police & Detective Publisher's Summary: A brand new full-cast BBC radio dramatisation, starring Bill Nighy as Charles Paris August in Edinburgh, and thousands of performers of all stripes have flocked to the Fringe Festival. Among them is Charles Paris filling in at the last minute after a student actress breaks a leg and has to drop out. Showcasing an earnest one-man show in a sea of stand-up comics is a bit of a gamble, but at least he's acting, and with a Charles Paris production, what could possibly go wrong? Charles is sharing a venue with a group of student actors, but when one of the performers dies in a freak stabbing, the actor-cum-amateur sleuth smells a murderous rat and decides to investigate. When the killer sets his sights on him, Charles realises that he must be getting close to the truth - despite not having a clue what's going on... Help arrives in the form of his agent, Maurice, in town scouting for talent, and Charles' 'semi-detached' wife, Frances, who inadvertently finds herself directing Charles' show. The three become drawn into the mystery, and find themselves playing detectives. This unlikely trio are way out of their depth, but when has that ever stopped Charles Paris? Jeremy Front's witty drama stars Bill Nighy as Charles Paris, with Suzanne Burden as Frances and Jon Glover as Maurice.
