2 Cassettes.
Read by Prunella Scales and Patricia Routledge.
In this follow-up to Radio 4's 'Ladies Of Letters' and 'Ladies Of More Letters', Patricia Routledge is Vera Small and Prunella Scales is her bosom buddy Irene Spencer. The two keep up a regular correspondence and now, with the advent of e-mail, the ladies of letters can communicate daily about their usual domestic mishaps.
As Irene and Vera fall in and out of friendship they accuse each other of everything from alcoholism to mental illness (but only in a loving, caring way, of course). Their hilarious put-downs and gossip give a wonderful insight into the trials of modern family life.
