Can't stop laughing!!

Martin Jarvis has become my favorite narrator after I listened to "Good Omens" narrated by him. His voice is so variable and the character and emotion of each role are all distinguished from each other and clear. It's really amazing that one person can have so many variable voices.

This "Speak after the Beep" consists of several small cute and funny stories. No loads of heavy stories, just simply entertainments!

Fantastic!

Hilarious and so clever, and all delivered in mellifluous tones by Martin Jarvis. Thank you, Michael Frayn!
