Bill Nighy on BBC7 - The Medical Detectives

Time to turn your radio on, and tune in on BBC7 the next week, from Monday to Thursday at 13.00. Bill is only in the episode of Monday though (thanks Addy).

From BBC7:

“Now, if you like nothing more than sitting down to your lunch and thinking about death and diseases, then you’re in luck. This week there’s the chance to hear The Medical Detectives - it’s one of those programme titles that really does what it says on the tin.
It’s a series of dramas based on real cases: there’s a Cholera outbreak in Soho in 1854; two ambitious young doctors tackle yellow fever in 19th-century Cuba; a strange epidemic among middle-class inhabitants of a quiet Essex suburb (and I don’t mean shell-suits and bad perms); and death in the Arctic. This cheery lunch-time listening has an impressive cast on hand: Bill Nighy (just when is State of Play II going to hit our screens?), Nicky Henson (he’s in Eastenders), Peter Capaldi (brilliant as the foul-mouthed spin doctor in The Thick of It), Ed Bishop (UFO, Philip Marlowe), Ken Stott (Messiah, Rebus), and Clive Merrison (he’s Mr Sherlock, y’know).
Right, you can probably guess some of my TV viewing habits from that lot. And you can mix your lunch with diseases - not literally, I hope - by listening to “The Medical Detectives”.”
Monday to Thursday at 1pm or again at 5am (while you have your breakfast).”

Don’t worry if you don’t life in the UK, you can listen again on the internet, as often as you like up to a week after the broadcast.

Tune in, cop out and get Nighy !
