Shrewsbury to Pwllheli

Alexei Sayle's Strangers on a Train

Available for over a year

Alexei Sayle takes another train journey and breaks the golden rule of travelling by train in the UK - by actually talking to his fellow passengers. In this episode, he travels from Shrewsbury to Pwllheli on the Cambrian coast line. Among his many fellow travellers, he meets: * Barry, an old school friend from Liverpool * Denise, who has been given an extraordinary set of directions in order to deal with the complex arrangements for her holiday * Geoff, who on a whim, decided to buy one of the UK's oldest cinemas, in a tiny Welsh seaside town * Isabel, who is off to monitor dolphins * Margaret, who has been going to the same spot on the Cambrian coast for her holiday every year for more than 50 years - and now her extended family is following the same tradition. Producers: Peter Lowe and Nick Symons A Ride production for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio 4, first broadcast in July 2023.
