Surprised there was no thread for this. Guess the release is so old, it predates this forum. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/6343532/images/mW7FMmAyG_vqxkNOJyyh.gif) Release page: www.bigfinish.com/releases/v/the-picture-of-dorian-gray-927The Picture of Dorian Gray August 2013 Written by Oscar Wilde Adapted by David Llewellyn Starring Alexander Vlahos & Miles Richardson I started listening to this while eating lunch and there went my whole afternoon, as I found the story so engrossing that I didn't want to start listening till the end. I thought Alexander Vlahos and Miles Richardson were great in this release. Oscar Wilde's story was adapted to audio so well that I had to go back and remind myself how the origninal read and how the audio adaptation differed. I haven't re-read Oscar Wilde's story at this point, but it's probably in one of our as yet to be unpacked boxes of books. (We're in a perpetual mode of moving from one dwelling to another. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/6343532/images/mW7FMmAyG_vqxkNOJyyh.gif) ) I didn't realize Miles Richardson was in it when I started listening, as I don't usually look at the credits when I listen, I just start listeing, but I recognized his distinctive voice immediately. The release includes The Confessions of Dorian Grey - This World Our Hell. I had listened to that story years ago when it was offered as a freebie and hadn't enjoyed it at that time. I liked it a lot more when I listened to it immediately after listening to The Picture of Dorian Gray adaptation. Great release, worth picking up if you haven't listened to it yet.

Thank you for bringing it up! I think it’s time for a re-listen, followed up with the entire Confessions range. It was consistently brilliant, and now having met Alex many times in Paris and London, and having followed all his other work, I’m sure the experience will be very layered with lots of new color!
