“Angels at Partridge Cottage”, a haunting holiday radio drama by Lucy Gannon that first aired on December 22, 1988 on BBC Radio 4’s Afternoon Theatre.

Zoe and Magnus Partridge arrive at their secluded cottage—Partridge Cottage—for a deliberately child-free, present-free, glitter-free Christmas. They intend to spend the holiday in quiet, undisturbed solitude .

The atmosphere turns unsettling fast: the couple starts noticing flickering lights, whispered voices, and inexplicable cold spots—classic signs of something supernatural lurking.
