Daphne du Maurier: Double Exposure - Don’t Look Now, on BBC Radio 4


Don't Look Now BBC logo


One of the highlights of the BBC Radio 4 and Radio 4 Extra fortnight of Daphne du Maurier programmes takes place this afternoon at 3pm on Radio 4.  It is the brand new dramatisation of Daphne du Maurier’s brilliant short story, Don’t Look Now.

At 2.45pm, also on Radio 4, is the regular Sunday afternoon programme Opening Lines, hosted by John Yorks.  It explores books, plays and stories and how they work.  This week, to start us off on our Don’t Look Now afternoon, John discusses Daphne’s short story, which he describes as the story that defined thriller writing.

So settle down and enjoy this excellent dramatisation of what we at the Daphne du Maurier website think is Daphne’s scariest story by far.

Don’t forget, if you can’t listen live, all the Daphne du Maurier programmes being broadcast during this special fortnight will be available on BBC Sounds. 

We understand that people will be able to pick up the programmes on BBC Sounds wherever they live, so overseas listeners will be able to enjoy these programmes too.  You will just need to wait for the programmes to be broadcast once, then they will go onto BBC Sounds.
