The Dad Who Fell To Earth is a new drama written by Toby Hadoke and directed by Charlotte Riches and premieres on Radio 4 this afternoon, July 9th, at 2.15pm.
Tom (Toby Hadoke) had been struggling to come to terms with his dad’s sudden death, before he found out that he was secretly an alien from a distant planet. After this shocking revelation, he finds his whole world shifting to a new perspective, a perspective that might just include saving the planet from imminent destruction.
The drama also stars the fantastic Ronald Pickup as Russel, plus Cherylee Houston (Izzy Armstrong in Coronation Street) as Jan, Alexandra Mathie as Wendy, Lee Fenwick as Pete/Steve, and Zoe Iqbal as Chelsea.
The Dad Who Fell To Earth airs on Radio 4 at 2.15pm and I’m very much looking forward to this. Soon after broadcast, it’ll be available on the BBC Iplayer, but in the meantime, you can also check out some clips on the BBC website here.
