BBC Comedy Audiobooks Competition

This autumn, BBC Audiobooks are releasing a rip-roaring range of contemporary comedy. From the Broadway inspired satire of 15 Minute Musical to the rambling diary of Ed Reardon and Mark Watson’s journey to save our immortal souls, there is plenty for everybody to laugh about. Win sets of audiobooks!

Ed Reardon’s Week
Welcome to the world of Ed Reardon, writer and liver of life at the cutting edge. Above The Cutting Edge, to be accurate, a one-bedroom flat over a hairdresser's in Berkhamsted, where Ed has lived on his own since his wife and grown-up kids left him, forcing the sale of the London home. With his diary establishing dramatised scenes, each episode tracks Ed's flawed attempts to escape poverty and gain the literary success he strongly feels is due.

Mark Watson Makes the World Substantially Better
As a starting point in making the world a better place, Mark will free you from sin. It’s a big task, but he thinks it’s going to go really well.

Meanwhile with the Bearded Ladies
Whether tackling relationships, work, play, being a mother, having a mother, first dates or last dates, the Bearded Ladies have a talent for creating a cocktail of comedy out of everyday life and adding a twist of madness.

15 Minute Musical: The Complete Third BBC Radio Series
The bite size yet satisfying musicals take easily identifiable public figures and give them a West End Musical makeover with original, never heard before music that will have both your goose bumps and the hairs on the back of your neck dancing.
