Against the background of gossipy Mrs Bennet and the detached Mr Bennet, the quest is on for husbands for the five daughters. The spotlight falls on Elizabeth, second eldest, who is courted by Mr Darcy though initially she is more concerned with the fate of her other sisters.

As Frankenstein becomes disgusted with his experiment, he thwarts the creature's desire for a companion, and what ensues is singularly chilling.

Title: Encounters with Victoria: Queen Victoria's Reign Through Significant Meetings

Author: Lucy Worsley

Narrator: Full Cast , Lucy Worsley

Format: Unabridged

Length: 02:14:18

Language: English

Release date: 03-19-20

Publisher: Penguin Books LTD

Genres: History, Europe

Summary:

Lucy Worsley presents a ten-part BBC radio exploration of Queen Victorias reign via notable encounters

In this revealing series, acclaimed historian and Chief Curator at Historic Royal Palaces, Lucy Worsley, explores the reign of Queen Victoria through pivotal figures in her life. We meet ten key individuals some well known, others less so and find out how they influenced the Queen, what she thought of them: and what they thought of her.

Beginning with Victorias Prime Minister and closest advisor, Lord Melbourne, Worsley goes on to introduce us to the Queens lady-in-waiting, Lady Flora Hastings; the Mayor of Newport, Thomas Phillips, governess Louise Lehzen and two popular American entertainers, Tom Thumb and Buffalo Bill as well as dresser Frieda Arnold; celebrity nurse Florence Nightingale; royal favourite Abdul Karim and Bishop Randall Davidson.

There are also encounters of a different kind, as Lucy Worsley chronicles Victorias grief at the death of her husband, Prince Albert, and records Victorias own final days and the crowd of people who gathered as Britains longest-reigning monarch breathed her last.

Travelling from Kensington Palace to a luxury hotel on the Côte dAzur, Worsley talks to eminent writers and historians and draws on letters and diaries including the Queens own journal to provide fascinating insight into Victorias world and those who helped shape it.

Title: Wanderers

Author: Chuck Wendig

Narrator: Dominic Hoffman, Xe Sands

Format: Unabridged

Length: 32:25:37

Language: English

Release date: 03-19-20

Publisher: Penguin Books LTD

Genres: Science Fiction & Fantasy, Apocalyptic & Dystopian

Summary:

A decadent rock star. A deeply religious radio host. A disgraced scientist. And a teenage girl who may be the world's last hope. From the mind of Chuck Wendig comes an astonishing tapestry of humanity that Harlan Coben calls 'a suspenseful, twisty, satisfying, surprising, thought-provoking epic.'

Shana wakes up one morning to discover her little sister in the grip of a strange malady. She appears to be sleepwalking. She cannot talk and cannot be woken up. And she is heading with inexorable determination to a destination that only she knows. But Shana and her sister are not alone. Soon they are joined by a flock of sleepwalkers from across America, on the same mysterious journey. And, like Shana, there are other 'shepherds' who follow the flock to protect their friends and family on the long dark road ahead.

For on their journey, they will discover an America convulsed with terror and violence, where this apocalyptic epidemic proves less dangerous than the fear of it. As the rest of society collapses all around them-and an ultraviolent militia threatens to exterminate them-the fate of the sleepwalkers depends on unraveling the mystery behind the epidemic. The terrifying secret will either tear the nation apart-or bring the survivors together to remake a shattered world.

Title: Simon Evans Goes to Market: The Complete Series 1-5: A BBC Radio 4 Comedy and Economics Show

Author: Simon Evans, Tim Harford

Narrator: Full Cast , Simon Evans, Tim Harford

Format: Unabridged

Length: 09:17:04

Language: English

Release date: 03-19-20

Publisher: Penguin Books LTD

Genres: General Comedy

Summary:

All five series of Simon Evans BBC Radio 4 show explaining economics through comedy

How do you make money funny? How do you put the comedy in commodity? In this BBC radio show, Simon Evans sets himself the challenge of making economics entertaining through comedic lectures, with the help of special guests including investment gurus, financial journalists and economists.

In Series 1 and 2, he examines the chequered social and economic histories of eight important commodities: land, gold, oil, grain, alcohol, tobacco, coffee and sugar. By looking at these fundamental products, Simon brings us to a closer understanding of how global economic forces have a far-reaching and often surprising impact on our lives.

Series 3 sees him exploring four of the stages that mark our journey through life youth, marriage, birth and death and how economics is part of every one of those stages, whether we like it or not. In Series 4, Simon looks at the concept of the free lunch and shines a light on new ways of making money in the 21st Century, from social media and multinationals that appear to be operating tax-free to philanthropy and the cost of health.

Finally, in Series 5, he points his jokenomics lens at the competing theories of Macro Economics and the Big Beards who devised them Adam Smith, Karl Marx and John Maynard Keynes and reflects on how they shape our world today, and how they can help us out of our current economic predicament.

Among his regular guests are Financial Times columnist and presenter of Radio 4s More Or Less, Tim Harford; Timandra Harkness, author of Big Data: Does Size Matter?; and the Queen of investment know-how, editor-in-chief of MoneyWeek Merryn Somerset Webb.

Produced by Tilusha Ghelani (Series 1), Claire Jones (Series 2 and 3), Richard Morris (Series 4 and 5)
