With the future uncertain, can they find the strength and resilience to face it together?Joanna Lumley stars as the older Harriet, looking back on events many years later, with Honeysuckle Weeks as her younger self. Among the stellar cast are Khalid Abdalla, Alex Wyndham and James Fleet.Production creditsWritten by Olivia ManningDramatised by Lin Coghlan and Jonathan HollowayProduced and directed by Marc Beeby and Colin GuthrieCastOld Harriet - Joanna LumleyHarriet - Honeysuckle WeeksGuy - Khalid AbdallaClarence - Alex WyndhamYakimov - James FleetInchcape - John RoweSophie/Edwina - Joannah TinceyGalpin/Clifford/Newsreader - John DougallBella/Mona - Carolyn PicklesDrucker/Desmond - Peter MarinkerSasha - Joseph ArkleyNikko/Toby Lush/Peter - Simon TrevesDespina/Phillips - Laura MolyneuxDr Hassolel/Mortimer - Katy CavanaghManager/Jackman - Ben OnwukweDobson - Sam DaleDubedat/Aidan/Cpt Hardy - Ben CroweProfessor Pinkrose - Nigel AnthonyCharles Warden/Mr Buschman - Alex LanipekunAngela - Alison PettittBill - Philip JacksonSimon - Sam PamphilonArnold/Young Arab - Lloyd ThomasDr Shafik/Helal - Bijan DaneshmandMarion - Emily WachterFirst broadcast BBC Radio 4, 27 January-2 March 2008(c)2022 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd (P)2022 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd
