Brian Gulliver's Travels - A satirical adventure story from Bill Dare.
Broadcast on BBC R4 in six weekly episodes from Monday 21st of February to Monday 28th of March 2011 at 11:30 GMT.
Brian Gulliver, a seasoned presenter of travel documentaries, finds himself in a hospital's secure unit after claiming to have experienced a succession of bizarre adventures.
Satirical targets over the series: the medical profession and its need to pathologize everything; the effect of marriage on children; spirituality and pseudo-science; compensation culture; sexism; the affect of our obsession with fame.
1/. Gelbetia, a country run by doctors.
2/. Juradia, a country where every other person is a lawyer.
3/. Osminia, a land where marriage is outlawed.
4/. Sham, a country where alternative therapies abound.
5/. Erosia, which has a very different view of sexual politics.
6/. Jampoa, where fame definitely equals fortune.
The series has attracted an excellent cast led by Neil Pearson and award winning star of the RSC's current season, Mariah Gale. Cast includes fantastic actors Tamsin Greig, John Standing, Paul Bhattacharjee, Christopher Douglas, Vicky Pepperdine, Phil Cornwell, Antonia Campbell Hughes, Jo Bobin and Katherine Jakeways.
Produced by Steven Canny
For years Bill Dare wanted to create a satire about different worlds exploring Kipling's idea that we travel, 'not just to explore civilizations, but to better understand our own'. But science fiction and space ships never interested him, so he put the idea on ice.
Gulliver's Travels is the only book Bill Dare read at university. His father, Peter Jones, narrated a similarly peripatetic radio series: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
Recorded using Replay AV8.
