As Time Goes By

By: Bob Larbey

Narrated by: Full Cast, Geoffrey Palmer, Judi Dench

Dame Judi Dench and Geoffrey Palmer star as old flames Jean Pargetter and Lionel Hardcastle. Their love story was all set for a happy ending in the 1950s when Jean was a student nurse and Lionel, a young army officer. But he was posted abroad and they lost touch. Thirty-eight years later, Lionel has returned to London to publish his autobiography and, through a strange coincidence, he is reunited with Jean who has set up a secretarial agency. Specially adapted in six episodes for BBC Radio 2, this hugely popular BBC1 bittersweet comedy about the reunited lovers asks the burning question: 'Can the flame of passion still flicker in middle age?'

Wonderful Performance

I loved this show and equally enjoyed the radio show. I wish there were more episodes for me to enjoy. I have been a repeat listener. I highly recommend this show.

Over and over listening

I have all the DVDs. Wish they have them all on audible. Highly recommended. Who family love it.

Just as charming as the television show

I don't know what there is about "As Time Goes By" but I am a fan of the TV show and I very much enjoy listening to these 6 shows on audio. The acting is first-rate and the story lines are cute and warm. I hope they bring more of the episodes to audio listening, as they are so enjoyable and relaxing.

Almost as good as the real thing.

As an avid fan of the BBC classic, this audio drama was a brilliant find. Just wonderful!

Great fun

I absolutely love this show and being able to listen to it as a radio drama is wonderful.
