Here's a TV programme not to miss on BBC Four tonight in the UK.
On Expenses is a true-life drama about one of the greatest political scandals of the 21st Century.
Silksoundbooks star audio book reader
Tim Pigott-Smith is one of the stars in this story of American journalist
Heather Brooke's fight for the disclosure of MP's expenses under the Freedom of Information Act, and how it resulted in dramatic newspaper revelations and even resignations that rocked both the government and the opposition.
On ExpensesIf' like me, you are a fan of Tim, you really should check out his unabridged audio book reading of
Plain Tales from the Hills. These, wry, evocative and extremely witty stories of the British at play in the hills of Simla, escaping the fire of the Indian high summer, are the work of
Rudyard Kipling and his love for the society he was born into and worked with really shines out.
Seven hours of joy - and only from Silksoundbooks!
