Dirk Maggs Other Audio Work
2002
Gives children aged 7 - 11 an X certificate explanation of a loathsome law
Henry VIII passed to persecute poisoners,
some nasty chips off the executioner's block and a football commentator's eye view of the Battle of Bosworth field.
Lifts the curtain on one of history's most horrid eras. Murders, digging up
dead bodies, partly-pickled children stuffed up chimneys
and disgusting details about toilet conditions in the Victorian years BC (Before Chain-pulling). Did Victoria die because of a lavatory?
Dirk is the "Audio Director" - ie responsible for everything that's not pictures. Quite a lot actually!
Dirk has been turned into a character in one of the last episodes for Mr Bean Tiger Aspect Productions
