Genevieve

Two men behave badly with vintage cars. Adapted from the 1953 film. Stars Michael Maloney and Robert Bathurst.

Remember the 1953 cinema classic, starring Kenneth More, John Gregson, Dinah Sheridan, Kay Kendall and two vintage cars?

It's probably the first British road movie as well as a wonderful romantic comedy.

Genevieve is the story of two men behaving badly with their cars - and their girlfriends on the annual London to Brighton car run.

Starring Michael Maloney, Amanda Root, Robert Bathurst and Samantha Bond.

William Rose wrote the original screenplay.

Adapted for radio by Adrian Bean.
