Press clippings
Up the Garden Path (Radio 4 Extra, 7.00am; repeated 5.30pm) is a welcome repeat of Sue Limb's comedy, starring Imelda Staunton as Izzy . It comes from the era when BBC TV looked down on BBC radio and missed, therefore, the chance to grab it. It went instead to Granada TV, establishing both author and lead actress. Her latest, the brilliant Gloomsbury, will return to Radio 4 this year.
