Radio review – BBC - “The Lady Vanishes” (2000) **1/2

More accurately this is an adaptation of The Wheel Spins which was adapted by Launder and Gilliat for the famous Hitchcock film. Assuming the adaptation is reasonably faithful, it’s fascinating to see the differences – no cricket loving; there is an extra English male character, a doctor; Mrs Froy isn’t a spy; there’s no final shoot out. Still very entertaining.
