Prime Minister David Cameron rolls the dice on the EU Referendum. Satire on our strange new times. Read by Jeff Rawle. From 2018.
2015 and manifestos are launched, Cameron promises an EU Referendum - and the Conservatives unexpectedly win the election.
Jonathan Coe's satirical novel about Brexit Britain.
Abridged in ten parts by Richard Hamilton.
Car factories have been replaced by pound shops, and in London riots give way to Olympic fever, Middle England follows a Britain through a time of mind-boggling change.
It paints a portrait of modern England up to Brexit: a country of nostalgia and delusion; of bewilderment and barely-suppressed rage.
Read by Jeff Rawle.
Producer: Justine Willett
First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in November 2018.
