It’s a difficult job to fit the whole of a long novel into a two-hour dramatisation. This does it well and captures the key scenes of the original. The spoken Scots is good, as you’d expect from Gerda Stevenson.

This has been very badly edited. It is a Radio 4 dramatisation but they have not even bothered to remove the announcements and news bulletins between chapters.

This dramatisation is ruined by 2 news bulletins
