A Radio 4 Saturday afternoon drama An interesting listen... it must have been ..it kept me away from the football whilst I was listening to it. The Thrill of Love Maxine Peake plays Ruth Ellis, the last woman to be hanged in Britain.
Starring alongside a cast that includes Siobhan Finneran and Joe Armstrong, Amanda Whittington's hit stage transfer imagines the role played by the women close to Ruth during the months between Ruth's murder of her lover David Blakely and her subsequent death by hanging.
Framed with interviews and laced with the music of Billie Holiday, this is an intimate, evocative and thought provoking drama directed by Kate Chapman.
