I listened to the first three series' of Clare in the Community a radio show about a social worker. I listened to the whole eight series' about two years ago and felt like doing it again.
I also listened to Brave New World, which I found quite interesting. I enjoyed Contact more than the movie. I liked that it shows women in STEM fields, with some struggles but also just very good at science.
Disclaimer I read for a bookclub, which I ended up missing due to having a migraine. It's an interesting story marred by truly awful, amateurish writing. The writer is quite experienced in other media, so it seems odd that she'd do so badly here. Maybe it was assumed she didn't need a story editor, or maybe it's just that writing prose is very different from writing plays? I plan to write a long post, pointing out specific bits which didn't make sense. Oh, and it was also marred by the fact that the 'twist' was easy to see coming, from quite a long way away, though it took the characters much longer to spot it.
