If you missed yesterday's broadcast of God of Carnage on BBC Radio 4, you can catch up on BBC iPlayer for another 29 days.
Lenny Henry leads a strong cast in God Of Carnage (Saturday, 2.15pm, Radio 4), Christopher Hampton’s translation of Yasmina Reza’s successful stage play about four parents meeting to resolve an ugly incident involving their children. Guardian
An excellent cast does full justice to this delicious comedy in which two sets of parents meet to discuss a fight between their sons. With its universal themes of parenthood, capitalism and civilisation itself, this play by Yasmina Reza has been successfully staged around the world while this translation from the French by Christopher Hampton has won numerous awards. Lenny Henry, Rosie Cavaliero, Joseph Millson and Monica Dolan star as the parents whose polite conversation descends into outright war and irrevocable remarks such as: “I wipe my arse with your charter of human rights!” Observer
