Christopher Douglas, who&#8217;s immediately recognisable as the voice of Ed, who co-writes Ed Reardon&#8217;s Week, claims here that there aren&#8217;t a great many parallels. Nonetheless, it&#8217;ll be fascinating to read more.<br \/>\nAnd just another plea at this point, if I may, to the good burghers of BBC Audio: please release Ed Reardon&#8217;s Week on CD! I get fair bit of traffic to this website from people searching for mp3s and the audio since aside from hoping it pops up again on BBC7, there&#8217;s no way to legally get hold of the episodes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thanks to Chris for noting that Open Book on Radio 4 recently covered nineteenth century novelist George Gissing and his novel New Grub Street.
