About this listen

Henry Normal uses poetry, storytelling and comedy to tackle big subjects with his trademark humour. This collection includes five of his funny and moving BBC Radio 4 shows:

A Normal Family is centred around Henry's son, Johnny, who was diagnosed with autism. Through stand-up and poetry, Henry explores what this means for Johnny, for himself, and for his wife, Angela.

A Normal Life continues to draw on Henry's experiences of bringing up a child with autism, and tackles the subjects of life, death, loneliness, loss, human frailty and other classic conversation stoppers.

A Normal Love sees Henry explore love, romance and other unreasonable expectations.

A Normal Imagination looks at the reasons why humans create.

A Normal Nature is an exploration of unsung nature, from the point of view of a busy urban human.

These extended episodes include material never broadcast on the radio.

A Normal Life was awarded a Silver ARIA for Best Comedy/Entertainment production at the 2017 Radio Academy Awards.

Written and performed by Henry Normal.

Produced by Carl Cooper.

A BBC Studios Production.

Critic reviews

"It's a rare and lovely thing: half an hour of radio that stops you short, gently demands your attention and then wipes your tears away while you have to have a little sit down." (The Guardian)
