Charles Paris: So Much Blood | Simon Brett & Jeremy Front | BBC Radio Drama | The Show That Killed
Enter the chaotic world of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in So Much Blood — a witty and suspenseful BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation of Simon Brett’s beloved Charles Paris mystery, adapted by Jeremy Front. When down-on-his-luck actor Charles Paris steps in to replace an injured student in a one-man show, he expects stage fright — not murder. But when one of the young performers is found dead in a bizarre stabbing, Charles can’t resist slipping into his second role: amateur detective. Between rehearsals, whisky, and a growing list of suspects, Charles stumbles into a deadly game of theatre and deception. With help from his long-suffering wife Frances and loyal agent Maurice, he must uncover the truth before the curtain falls — for good. 🎭 Why Listen: A sharp, darkly comic mystery starring Bill Nighy as Charles Paris Adapted by Jeremy Front from Simon Brett’s acclaimed detective novels A perfect mix of theatre satire, British wit, and classic whodunnit suspense 🏷️ Tags: #CharlesParis #SimonBrett #SoMuchBlood #BBCRadioDrama #BillNighy #BritishMystery #DetectiveDrama #ComedyCrime #AudioThriller #FullCastAudio #MurderMystery #FringeFestival #BBCMystery
