The McFeggan Offensive by William Boyd

John Sessions reads William Boyd's wry new story set in a boys school. This was the late, great actors' final recording for radio - a medium he loved.

John Sessions reads William Boyd's wry new story for radio about bad haircuts, worst accent and illicit cigarettes in a 1960s boys school.

Sessions was a star of radio as well as screen and stage. This was his final recording for the medium he loved. Written for him by a long term friend and collaborator, it is a fitting tribute to the late, great comic actor.

Boyd is a multi-award winning novelist, short story writer and playwright. The author of 16 highly-acclaimed novels, including Any Human Heart and Restless, his latest Trio is set in Brighton during the swinging sixties, and has garnered rave reviews following its recent release.

Producer: Ciaran Bermingham
