Hilarious and fun

Everyone wants to be like Barbara and Tom Good. Independent of the confines of society. And you just gotta love Margo and Jerry-opposite views, yet the best friends ever to have in a crisis.

Cleverly Done

Where does The Good Life, Volume 4 rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far?

One of my absolute favourites. Bob Larbey and John Esmonde's superb writing with the matching delivery of the cast. wonderful.

What other book might you compare The Good Life, Volume 4 to, and why?

like Fawlty Towers audio recordings, the original recording has been re-edited with a neat narration so it plays for radio / audio

Which scene did you most enjoy?

Too many excellent moments to choose.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

There are laugh out loud moments but generally it's the nostalgic humour of the thing. There's a tiny part of everyone, deep down, wants to be Tom or Barbara. And you can't be the Goods without the Leadbetters living next door. It just wouldn't work.

Another good one!

We live reliving the moment! Loved the TV series. Can picture the scenes as we listen.

Title: The Gross

Subtitle: The Hits, the Flops: The Summer That Ate Hollywood

Author: Peter Bart

Narrator: Stuart Langton

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10 hrs and 15 mins

Language: English

Release date: 02-06-07

Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc.

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 19 votes

Genres: Radio & TV, Entertainment

Publisher's Summary:

Peter Bart, editor-in-chief of Variety, brings us a marvelously entertaining behind-the-scenes portrait of moviemaking, spotlighting the summer of 1998. He takes us through the entire cycle of would-be summer blockbusters, from script through casting and production and finally into release. Interviewing dozens of the most powerful names in Hollywood, Bart gives an in-depth account of why some succeeded and others failed.

Critic Reviews:

"Bart brings a remarkably plugged-in perspective to the movie community's annual demolition derby." (Entertainment Weekly) "[A] fascinating inside look at filmmaking that leaves one wondering how anything cohesive is ever projected on the big screen." (Library Journal) "Bart's insider status ensures that we get the lowdown....[This book] has a far more compelling story line than any of the summer films he dissects, and the characters are far better developed." (Detroit Free Press)

Members Reviews:

classic Peter Bart

A really good history of Hollywood during the go-go years. Great fun if you were there and illuminating for anyone in the industry at the time.

Intersting book... horrible reader.

The worst reader I've heard from anything I've downloaded off Audible. Not only did he mispronounce a number of the names (Jet Li = Lie, Warren Beatty = Beetty) but even common words get butchered, and a few times titles of the films are said wrong (all I can remember is "6 Days, 7 Weeks" at the moment, but there were others.)

Really an irritating experience. Though the book is fairly interesting.

Fascinating topic, distracting reading

It is easy to engage with Bart's fascinating idea--follow 1998's summer movies from inception to release and then tell the story. Brilliant stuff. It's quick and engaging, if a little too journalistic on occasion, but overall a very good read.

But the audiobook's reader makes mistakes that derail and distract--for example, he can't pronounce "Warren Beatty," one of the book's central figures. He also screws up the name "Jet Li" several times. In a book where pronunciations are flexible (or fictional), this is less of an issue, but here, where we're talking about real people with real names, it's a shame that he couldn't take the time to ask someone.

Title: Goon Show

Subtitle: Parkinson Interviews - The Goons & Peter Sellers

Author: BBC Audiobooks

Narrator: full cast

Format: Original Recording

Length: 1 hr and 36 mins

Language: English

Release date: 11-29-06

Publisher: BBC Worldwide Limited

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 7 votes

Genres: Radio & TV, Entertainment

Publisher's Summary:

In Parkinson's interview with The Goons, Peter Sellers and Harry Secombe remember their "love/hate; let's get one over the BBC" relationship. Spike Milligan joins them from his sick bed in Australia, where he was suffering from the Lurgi.

Slipping instantly from accent to accent, Yorkshire to Yiddish, Bluebottle to Bloodnok, Guinness to Gielgud, Peter Sellers, in his individual interview, relates showbiz anecdotes. Amid the hilarity, the authentic voice of Peter Sellers emerges, as he talks about his childhood, early career, and achievements.

Members Reviews:

Funny and sad

Would you consider the audio edition of Goon Show to be better than the print version?

Its a pity Peter Sellers died so young.

Any additional comments?

Some funny moments but it is better to listen to a Goon Show.

The Goons interviewed By Parkinson

If you are into the Goons or Peter Sellers this is a must have. In fact I would rate it the best material on those subjects available. I never realized what a genius Peter Sellers was - I always knew he was funny and clever but genius I hadn't realized till now. Extremely funny, informative. I can see I will be re listening to this at least once a year.

Two Legends in One Audiobook

What about Prunella Scales and Patricia Routledge s performance did you like?

I grew up watching these ladies on television. They both have the ability to give a performance that is as equally as good as anything they do on screen.

Any additional comments?

I love the entire series of Ladies of Letters. At times the humour is subtle and 100% British and other times its laugh out loud. I am sad the series has concluded but forever grateful I have the series for my collection.

Great talent

Great talent but not a great storyline

ladies of letters log on

another excellent episode of Vera and Irene. I listen to the whole series over and over, very entertaining and funny

Excellent Vintage

Where does Ladies of Letters Log On rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far?

Really enjoyed listening to this audiobook. Love the series on Radio 4, hadn't heard this one - it didn't disappoint. A perfect two hours of genteel (and sometimes not so genteel) verbal fencing.

Who was your favorite character and why?

How can one choose between either character, they are both slightly mad!

What about Prunella Scales and Patricia Routledge s performance did you like?

You can hear all of the subtle barbs and passive aggressive undercurrent in their voices. Well (voice) acted.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No, as I was unable, but I listened to it throughout my walk to work.

Enjoyable

Very enjoyable. The narration of Prunella Scales and Patricia Rutledge is a joy to listen to.

Another Comedy From Scales & Routledge

These two actresses are so funny to listen to. Just hilarious with all the hidden between the lines meanings and storylines. Timing and performances were excellent. A quick bit of silliness and fun.

Two of the best actors in modern theater/theatre

Scales and Routledge shine in these dueling epistles. The writing is crisp and intelligent, the undercurrent of bawdy humor hilarious.

Great talent

Great talent but not a great storyline

A great listen

Love the dialogue - brilliantly written! Great performances from both the ladies. a real joy.

Absolutely loved it

This series of books is quite simply the most entertaining I've listened to in ages.
