Comedy drama written especially for Maureen Lipman. Fay and Alan know everything about each another. Until a trip to the cemetery brings new revelations. With George Layton.

Dead Rellies by Gary Brown

Fay & Alan have come to visit their parents' grave.
But other parts of their past come back to haunt them.

Fay ..... Maureen Lipman
Alan ..... George Layton
Cynthia ..... Julie Teal

Produced and directed by Marion Nancarrow

Maureen Lipman's hugely successful career as actress, writer, artist and, most recently, director, has spanned 50 years and, in her honour, 4 new comedy dramas have been especially commissioned for Radio 4, with the writers creating roles specifically for her. The results are 4 very different plays. This week, a second play by Gary Brown reunites Maureen with the actor George Layton (probably still best known for the Doctor in the House series and as a writer, including "Don't Wait Up").

And next week you can hear the final play in the series, "Theodora Potts: Victorian Psychic" by Tracy-Ann Oberman and Ivor Baddiel, in which Tracy-Ann Oberman also co-stars.
