(I previously uploaded this play in the early days of the channel. A lot of these older plays have been 'buried' now that there are more than a thousand videos on here, so I'm uploading it again to hopefully bring it to a fresh audience)

There are several versions of Jekyll & Hyde to this channel, but this is an interesting variation. Strictly speaking it's a crime thriller (and strictly speaking, you might say, so is Stevenson's original story) but it certainly draws on the tale of Doctor Jekyll. Originally broadcast as a series, it was repeated in this feature-length version on BBC Radio Scotland...

MYSTERIOUS MAGPIE is a channel devoted to ghost and horror stories on British radio, and to dark tales of every kind. I have another channel, MYSTICAL MAGPIE, which is all about stories of fantasy, mythology, and adventure:    / @mysticalmagpie-wo5fn
