Matthew Beard and Sophie Rundle star in a brand new BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation of the bestselling novel by Neil Gaiman, narrated by Eleanor Bron.

Neil Gaiman is the New York Times bestselling author of the novels ¿Neverwhere¿ (1995), ¿Stardust¿ (1999), the Hugo and Nebula Award-winning ¿American Gods¿ (2001), ¿Anansi Boys¿ (2005), and ¿Good Omens¿ (with Terry Pratchett, 1990), as well as the short story collections ¿Smoke and Mirrors¿ (1998) and ¿Fragile Things¿ (2006). His screenwriting credits include the original BBC TV series of ¿Neverwhere¿ (1996), Dave McKean¿s first feature film, ¿Mirrormask¿ (2005), and the Doctor Who episode 'The Doctor's Wife' (2011). In 2013, The Ocean at the End of the Lane was voted Book of the Year in the British National Book Awards. A radio adaptation of Neverwhere was broadcast in March 2013, adapted by Dirk Maggs for BBC Radio 4 and Radio 4 Extra. In September 2014, Gaiman and Terry Pratchett joined forces with BBC Radio 4 to make the first ever dramatisation of their co-penned novel Good Omens.
