The novels have been adapted by Jeremy Front into a comedy-drama series for BBC Radio, starring Bill Nighy.
Brett was inspired to write the Charles Paris series after working on the BBC radio adaptations of Lord Peter Wimsey:[1] "I realised that plot is really important but character and dialogue were actually just as important."[2]
