The Novel Game
The Novel Game
Avonside Studio
Three funny people write the first line of a book, film poster or advert and pit this against the work of the real author. Will they write something more appealing than the writer and fool their fellows? Will they fall flat on their face? Will you guess who's fooling who? With Robin Ince, Fenella Fudge, Marian Pashley, Stuart Flynn & Bruce Guthrie.

This pilot episode was recorded at the Leicester Square Theatre, London in 2015. Written & produced by Bruce Guthrie. © 2020 https://www.avonside.studio/ BONUS! The Map of Keynsham What really happened to our much-loved illuminated town map and my childhood sense of place? Looking for it reveals the changes to High Street Britain in the rush for modernity. For something that is still so loved, no one knows what happened to this illuminated town map and even finding a picture of it proves... illusive. Part treasure hunt, part social history and part midlife crisis - the Map of Keynsham is all about finding certainty, security and a place to call home. Listen as the Map takes us around this small West County town: “Location Please. Where would you like to go today? The Clocktower, Fry’s Factory at Somerdale or the offices of Somerset County Council?” Contributors: Sue Martin Gillian Sandow & Alan Hale Actors: Little Bruce - Alfred Schwarz Mummy - Dawn Miller Mr Gilbert - John Sibley Shop Assistant - Catherine Guy With thanks to Emma Britton and BBC Radio Bristol.
