Art teacher at Edinburgh's Marcia Blaine School, Mr Teddy Lloyd begins to paint Miss Brodie's girls.
Read by Gerda Stevenson.
Set in the 1930s, Muriel Spark's novel tells the justly enduring story of teacher, Jean Brodie.
Eschewing the normal curriculum, Miss Brodie seeks to mould her 'set' of girls 'of an impressionable age', into the 'crème de la crème'. But her convictions spark complications as some begin to question her authority and purpose.
Abridged by Sally Marmion.
Producer: Di Speirs
