The Complete Series 1-4

De: Miles Jupp, Justin Edwards

Narrado por: Justin Edwards, Miles Jupp

Miles Jupp stars as fussy food writer Damien Trench in the complete four series of this much-loved BBC Radio 4 sitcom.

Well-known cookery writer Damien Trench is famous for his book A Year in the Kitchen, a diary of everything he cooked and ate over the course of 12 months. Now, for the follow-up volume, In and Out of the Kitchen, Damien undertakes to open up the doors "not only to my kitchen, but also to my life". But is Damien’s life as idyllic as his listeners might suppose?

During the course of these 22 episodes, we follow the ups and downs of life for Damien and his partner, Anthony, as Damien films a pilot for his TV series Poets and their Palates, appears at a literary festival, dips his toe into the world of journalism, contends with the well-meaning interference of friends, looks after a baby, and plans his wedding.

Many of Damien’s recipes are included along the way. As he himself might say, enjoy - and more importantly, cook.

Listening Got Me Tracked As LGBTQ+

Per Audible, this comedy series is LGBTQ+ and listening pigeonholed me as LGBTQ+. I just got via email an UNrequested "report" for 2022 of my Audible listening. That I was being tracked was insulting, infuriating, blood pressure raising. I joined Audible to own this well-done comedy series. I have often played it as background or with the sleep timer something I can fall asleep to. It is as much LGBTQ+ in theme, plot, story as one of the Pope's sermons. So, it was miscategorized by Audible probably because the tiny brain trust thought it would bring in more money. And then I got an intrusive report card from Audible on my listening behavior...as though Audible is the only listening service in the world. The report card, of course, chose to note the number of minutes I had spent listening to LGBTQ+ selections...when the only selection was this one, listened to many times not for prurient purposes but because it borders on brilliant, is truly Everyman funny....and sex plays no part in the series. The two main characters are gay, share a home...everyone else is heterosexual and there is some offstage sexual encounter because one of the women gets pregnant. Shame on Audible!

This is fabulous!

Okay, I have a serious addiction to listening to this! I was recommended by my English Family! I loved every moment!
