The BBC TV series was superlative and I've always been fond of it. This radio programme though, well - I have my imagination and mind's eye to rely on. Nothing beats the mind's eye. I can't help thinking though that George Smiley is Bernard Hepton's character Toby Esterhausè (sp?) from the telly series!

I've just found The Complete Smiley with SRB as Smiley and the wonderful Brian Cox as Alec Leamus. I've skipped A Murder of Quality and Call for the Dead, jumping straight to The Spy Who Came In From The Cold. They were made in 2009 so there's no version of A Legacy of Spies - my latest reason to return to the oppressive paranoia of the George Smiley universe. Now we've lost John le Carre it's doubtful there will ever be another reason to pull me back, once more.

@@paulleverton9569 A Murder of Quality is a detective story, but don't miss Call for the Dead if you like spy thrillers. It's great background to some of the things alluded to in the later Smiley novels. A Murder of Quality has a nice little movie available her on YT, with Denholm Elliott as Smiley and a top notch cast supporting, starting with Glenda Jackson as Ailsa Brimley. It's one of her most endearing roles.

Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy (1974) by John Le Carre; adapted by Rene Basilico Broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in 7 episodes in August and September 1988. Music By: Max Harris Producer: John Fawcett Wilson Episode 1 : 9th August 1988 18.30-19.00 George Smiley returns from a prolonged overseas assignment to discover that all is not well inside the shadowy world of the 'Circus'. George Smiley : Bernard Hepton Percy Alleline : James Grout Toby Esterhase : Charles Kay Roy Bland : William Simons Bill Haydon : Edward de Souza Control : Alan MacNaughtan Lady Anne Smiley : Sarah Lawson Jim Prideaux : Denis L Collins : Terrence Hardiman Bryant : Michael Tudor Barnes Foreign Office clerk: Peter Craze Meakin : Laurence Payne Secretary : Zelah Clarke Oliver Lacon : John Quayle Episode 2 : 16th August 1988 18.30-19.00 It is now over a year since George Smiley was sent into premature retirement from the 'Circus'. But a chance encounter and an unexpected invitation prove that the past is not so easily forgotten. Cast as for Episode 1 plus - Peter Guillam : Douglas Blackwell Ricky Tarr : Christian Rodska Roddy Martindale : John Savident Irina : Valentina Yakunina Cabbie : Philip Sully Tom : Norman Bird Fawn : Anthony Jackson Episode 3 : 23rd August 1988 18.30-19.00 There is a Russian double agent operating inside the 'Circus', if Irina's story is to be believed that is. A matter for immediate investigation. But how, exactly? And by whom? Cast as above plus - Mendel : John Bennett Mrs Pope-Graham : Ann Lynn Connie Sachs : Rosemaryfs Leach Student : Richard Pearce Lauder Strickland : Alex Norton Episode 4 : 30th August 1988 18.30-19.00 George Smiley has begun his 'extra-mural' investigation into allegations of a Russian double agent inside the 'Circus'. But much of the early evidence is circumstantial.... hard facts are hard to come by. Cast as above plus - Jerry Westerby : David Calder Jimmy : John Baddeley Alwyn : Sidney Kean Sally : Alice Edwards Episode 5 : 6th September 1988 18.30-19.00 With the help of old colleagues and associates. Smiley is piecing together a complex web of 'Circus' intrigue ... and at the same time uncovering some facts which are uncomfortably close to home. Cast as above plus - Max Kodicek : Stephen Greif Ailsa Brimley : Sheila Grant Dicky : Brian Hall Waitress : Caroline Gruber Episode 6 : 13th September 1988 18.30-19.00 Smiley's investigations are almost complete. But there are still one or two loose ends to tie up.... and one of them leads him to a man who has been savagely betrayed - a victim of the Russian 'mole' inside the 'Circus'. Cast as above plus - Jumbo : Adam Bromley Shrimp : Corrin Heluwell Receptionist/Waitress : Jenny Funnell Episode 7 : 20th September 1988 18.30-19.00 The last clever knot has been unravelled ... and George Smiley devises the stratagem that will lead the Russian 'mole' to reveal his identity. ast as above plus - Steve Macklevore : Tenniel Evans Millie McCraig : Eva Stuart Ben : Stephen Tompkinson Nick de Silsky : Brian Croucher Duty officer : John Sansom Polyakov : Alexei Jawdokimov

Ha! No matter how good the source material, every radio drama has dialogue that no person would ever say say in real life. Everything unseen is over-explained in the dialogue, and it's tiresome. "Oh, hallo - who are you coming into the door out of the taxi that's just pulled up?" Okay, I'm exaggerating for effect. But it patronises the listener. and makes the narrative very clunky. If anyone doubts this, try listening to a good drama on television without looking at it. It's so much more realistic because that's how people really behave. And your imagination does the rest.
