Publisher's Summary
Ian Carmichael stars as Lord Peter Wimsey in these definitive BBC radio dramatisations of Dorothy L Sayers' classic crime novels.
Aristocratic amateur sleuth Lord Peter Wimsey was the master creation of Dorothy L Sayers, widely acknowledged as one of the four original 'Queens of Crime'. These full-cast adaptations - first broadcast on BBC radio in the 1970s, and presented here in their entirety - are admired by fans of the genre worldwide.
Whose Body? is the tale that first introduced Lord Peter to the world, and sees him investigating the case of a corpse in a Battersea bathtub and a vanished oil millionaire.
In Clouds of Witness, Lord Peter's eldest brother stands accused of murder. In collaboration with Inspector Parker, Wimsey slowly uncovers a web of lies and deceit within his own family....
Unnatural Death finds Peter probing the mysterious death of an elderly lady. He suspects foul play, and with the help of the indomitable Miss Climpson, sets about his investigations in deepest Hampshire....
Produced by Simon Brett (author of the Charles Paris series), these acclaimed dramas also feature Peter Jones, Patricia Routledge, Miriam Margolyes and Garard Green.

Enjoyable
Loved the enactments. Every character was well played out. Though in one or two instances, I found it difficult to make our what was said but nevertheless all the 3 plays were a good listen. I would recommend this to listeners of Agatha christie and sherlock Holmes

Loved the performances, they bring the stories alive.
The plays are adapted well and make for entertaining listens with tea or coffee on a Sunday afternoon.

Understated Humour
Enjoyed listening as it brought the whole atmosphere of the society of the time to the mind’s eye. The understated humour always brought a smile.

Entertaining
Well it took me a while to warm up to the whole thing. It was the story that remained with me and brought me back to this audiobook. The dramatisation took a little getting used to. I most enjoyed the effect in the second story - adaptation of clouds of witness. I enjoyed listening to it and won't mind listening to more of Lord Peter Wimsey's Sherlocking. Good work by BBC radio.
