Miranda Hart, Patricia Hodge and Sarah Hadland star in the first series of the BBC Radio sitcom.
Miranda (Miranda Hart) is an unconventional woman. She’s six-feet tall, self-conscious and posh. And is frequently mistaken for a man. She’s also invested her inheritance in a joke shop that she runs with her friend Stevie ...(Sarah Hadland) while trying to deal with her outrageously embarrassing mother (Patricia Hodge).
Though surrounded by chocolate willies, Miranda is determined to suss out what it takes to be a girly girl and to not look a complete idiot every time she meets the gorgeous Gary (Tom Ellis).
BBC Audiobooks Now on BBC2 (monday's 8.30pm), Miranda Hart's Jokeshop gravitated from Radio 2 and our audiobook from the radio series is available now ... the TV series has had mixed reviews but listen to the clip and let us know what you think ...

Miranda Hart is one of those performers who just exude likeableness. Every time I see her on TV I want her to be my new best friend.

A classic, by some Margin - Anthony Harvison reviews a forgotten Alan Bennett gem
BBC Audiobooks
‘Wanted: retired army Captain for light household duties and fireside companionship. Must tolerate mild eccentricity and strong scientific advice. Knowledge of Giant Maggots, Super Intelligent Spiders and Prehistoric Monsters a positive boon.’
Responding to an advert apparently worded for him alone, Captain Mike Yates ...(retired) is reunited with a ghost from the past. But why has the Doctor, that mysterious traveller in Time and Space, sent for his former UNIT acquaintance? Trapped by a horde of vicious creatures in an apparently innocuous English country cottage, the two old friends are on the brink of an enormous adventure. As the Doctor relates his recent escapades, it becomes clear to Mike that they – and the Earth at large – are facing an enemy of unimaginable power and horrific intent. The nightmare is only just beginning…
Visiting the English seaside town of Cromer in the summer of 1932, the Doctor happens upon the strange world of the Cromer Palace of Curios. The young Ernestina Scott is unusually beguiled by one of the museum’s exhibits, and when the Doctor befriends her, they unwittingly embark upon a terrifying escapade.
Chased by animated dolls through a nightmarish model house, the Doctor realises he is being hunted by a familiar enemy. The unmistakable sound of hornets is in the air, and they are keen to speak to him. Overseeing this game of cat and mouse is the Palace of Curios’ curator –a certain Mrs Wibbsey…
The circus has come to town – and so has the Doctor! Watching the parade pass by in 1832, he finds the people of Blandford strangely drawn towards the garish big top, and knows that something is terribly wrong. The only thing to do is pay a visit. Meanwhile Adam Farrow finds his sister caught up with the circus and its sinister ringmaster. What is behind Antonio’s almost hypnotic power, and how is it connected with an event in the Doctor’s future? Seized by clowns and forced into the centre of the ring, the Doctor encounters the fiercest of all circus acts. Yet something much more terrifying lurks in the wings – and the sound it makes is horribly familiar. Lives will be lost before the circus moves on – and the Doctor will face his own doom on the high wire.

Emma Woodhouse is one of Austen's most captivating and vivid characters. Beautiful, spoilt, vain and irrepressibly witty, Emma organises the lives of the inhabitants of her sleepy little village, but her attempts at matchmaking lead to misunderstandings and potential heartbreak. Only her friend and neighbour Mr Knightl...ey dares to point out the mistakes she is making and encourages her to change her ways.
Emma is now a major BBC television series starring Romola Garai, Jonny Lee Miller and Michael Gambon.
Jenny Agutter reads Jane Austen’s classic novel, complete and unabridged.

AUDIO CD REVIEW: Doctor Who: Hornets' Nest - The Circus Of Doom, BBC Audio Books, £6.25. - The David Tennants of this world are all very well, but no one comes close to the great Tom Baker. He was Doctor Who in a way no one else has ever managed.
