About this listen

The first five series of the BBC Radio comedy drama about the lives and squabbles of three very different sisters.

After years of looking after her elderly parents, Anna finds herself able, for the first time, to live her own life. She's enjoying simply being herself, with no responsibilities and no obligations. But her two younger sisters, Victoria and Charlotte, are concerned about her. Surely poor, unfulfilled Anna can't be happy without a partner or a family around?

Determined to make an effort, they decide to draw her into their lives - and Anna's peaceful, commitment-free lifestyle soon disappears. Throughout these five series, she becomes embroiled in their various dramas and crises, as actress Charlotte suffers a series of career and romantic disappointments and housewife Victoria grows increasingly discontented with her husband, Roger. And as Victoria's daughter, Emily, grows from sulky teen to young woman, she, too, starts to confide in her aunt Anna.

With all her relatives involving her in their affairs, will Anna still be able to forge her own path - and maybe even find romance?

Created by award-winning author Simon Brett, whose radio sitcom credits include After Henry and Smelling of Roses, this classic comedy about sisterly dissension stars Rosemary Leach as Anna, with Nicola Pagett as Victoria and Celia Imrie and Josie Lawrence as Charlotte.

Produced by Paul Schlesinger (series one and two), Ann Jobson (series three and four) and Maria Esposito (series five).

Music composed by Elizabeth Parker, BBC Radiophonic Workshop.

Hilariously British

I often listen to BBC dramas before dropping off to sleep. This one had me shaking as I tried to stifle laughter. often to no avail. I look forward to continuing with the series.
