    It does say on the page'read by some of Britains finest actors'.

    Yes I saw that but was hoping someone would let me know which actors. Think my sis said Simon Callow was in the good version so that's great.

    Thanks jejawill. Thanks divadee

    Simon Callow/ Miriam Margolyes/ June Whitfield/ Timothy West/ James Bolam/ Geoffrey Palmer/ Andrew Sachs / Hugh Lawrie/ Martin Jarvis and Stephen Fry.

    I bought this for my grandson for Xmas and we had to open it and listen to The Twits this evening. I'm so pleased I bought it.

    Are these abridged versions or are they the whole books? Anyone know, while I'm waiting for mine to be delivered?
    You don't get medals for sitting in the trenches.
  • I think they are abridged. Though it doesn't say so on this particular package, I was looking at some of the individual titles in Borders the other day they said abridged. Having said that, they are all pretty long - e.g James and The Giant Peach = 2 CDs of 75 minutes and 79 minutes. Charlie + Chocolate Factory = 3 CDs of 54, 49 and 56 minutes. So I'm guessing any editing will be pretty minimal.

  • Well mine is here at last :)
    Business Express driver had left it under a van at another address along the road because he couldn't find our house.
