Great performance, great story and a great listen. Well done Bunny and Raffles! Well played!

Great

If you can ignore (temporarily) the arrogance and snobbery of empire, it is entertainment of a different era. Mildly derivative stories (by the brother-in-law of Conan Doyle - though some influence clearly passed the other way) converted to entertaining BBC Radio Plays. Enjoyable but not to be taken too seriously - worth a listen.

Wonderful performances of great stories! I’m late to Hornung but he’s become a real favourite.

Superb!

Raffles the gentleman thief and his friend Bunny Manders get into a series of tight scrapes and always come out better off. Really enjoyed this and the performance is really good.

Jolly entertaining antidote to Sherlock Holmes
