Ed Reardon's Week: Writer in Residence (Episode 5, Series 7)

Series 7 of the award-winning BBC Radio 4 comedy starring Christopher Douglas, John Fortune, Stephanie Cole and Sally Hawkins. In the fifth episode, 'Writer in Residence', Ed decides to immerse himself in popular culture and retunes away from Radio Four. The new outlook on the world that Radios 1, 2 and 5 bring to Ed proves fortuitous when his daughter, Eli, manages to secure him an interview at her husband's university. So it is that Ed finds himself 'Writer in residence' with all the benefits that this affords, including discussing the merits of the worst Lady Gaga wardrobe malfunction of the year. Written by Christopher Douglas and Andrew Nickolds, 'Ed Reardon's Week' includes supporting roles from Stephanie Cole as Olive, John Fortune as Felix and Barunka O'Shaughnessy as Ping. 'Ed Reardon's Week' was voted Best Radio Programme by the Broadcasting Press Guild.
