Imaginative dramatisations of the works of Daniel Defoe, bringing his characters to life for modern listeners.

This collection will include:

Robinson Crusoe and his Farther Adventures - Defoe's most famous adventure story and its lesser-known sequel, woven together to form an imaginative two-part drama. Crusoe and his companions are barricaded in the Siberian woods, and under attack from the Tartars, who are closing in as the night progresses. To allay his companions' fears as they huddle round their crackling campfire, Crusoe recounts stories of his many adventures, and life on his beloved island. Starring Tim McInnerney as Crusoe.

Moll Flanders - Daniel Defoe finds inspiration for a new book when he meets Elizabeth Atkins in Newgate gaol. She tells him her stranger-than-fiction story: of how she was born in prison to a petty thief and how she loved and bargained her way from rags to riches, from prostitution in the streets of London to prosperity on a Virginia plantation, and then lost it all again. Defoe interprets it all in his characteristic manner, blending fact with fiction, and re-inventing his interlocutor as the lusty and resourceful Moll Flanders. Starring Ben Miles as Defoe and Jessica Hynes as Elizabeth Atkins.

A Journal of the Plague Year - Defoe is writing his fictional 'journal' of the Great Plague of 1665, but he soon comes to be haunted by the people he is conjuring. Starring Ben Miles as Defoe.

This exciting new collection of reinvented tales will also include two bonus programmes about Daniel Defoe himself:

Defoe: Merchant, Writer, Convict, Spy by Phlip Palmer - A biographical drama about Defoe’s life, starring Ben Miles as Defoe and Niamh Cusack as his wife Mary.

Defoe: The Facts and Fictions - A documentary by Mark Lawson, exploring the far-reaching influence of Daniel Defoe.

Imaginative dramatisations of the works of Daniel Defoe, bringing his characters to life for modern listeners
Daniel Defoe was born in London in 1660. He worked briefly as a hosiery merchant, then as an intelligence agent and political writer. His writings resulted in his imprisonment on several occasions, and earned him powerful friends and enemies. During his lifetime Defoe wrote over two hundred and fifty books, pamphlets and journals and travelled widely in both Europe and the British Isles. Among his most famous works are Robinson Crusoe (1719), Moll Flanders (1722) and A Journal of the Plague Year (1722). Though Defoe was nearly sixty before he began writing fiction, his work is so fundamental to the development of the novel that he is often cited as the first true English novelist. He is also regarded as a founding father of modern journalism and one of the earliest travel writers. Daniel Defoe died in April 1731.
