Excellent. Another fan. I posted a thread here (http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=378177) about the sad death of Peter Coke in July.

Paul Temple and the Spencer Affair starts on Radio 7 next week (Friday 10th, I think, but don't quote me). It starts the day after the last episode of the Jonathan Mystery anyway.

The other Peter Coke Paul Temple serials have been on Radio 7 over the past couple of years, and they're repeated fairly regularly. There are also a couple of new re-recordings of 'lost' serials to listen out for (The Sullivan Mystery from 2006 and the Madison Mystery from last May) with Crawford Logan doing an excellent job in the Paul Temple role. They're both available on CD, along with the serials from the 50s and 60s.

Anthony Head has also recorded some abridged versions of the Paul Temple novels, with more to come, I believe. Not as exciting as the serials, but still worth a listen. Oh, and unabridged versions of some of them are available too (Paul Temple and the Front Page Men etc).

I'm a recent convert and think they are great. I'm currently 2 episodes in to The Ferguson Affair and will be looking forward to listening to part 3 whilst soaking in the bath tomorrow
