Should I Stay or Should I Go?

Roger’s pursued by an ex-student and Joanna admits a former attraction. Stars Roger Allam and Joanna Lumley. From January 2021.

Joanna Lumley and Roger Allam play a couple who have been married 'forever'.

Children of the 1960s, they're still free spirits, drawn together by their passion for music and each other. Their recognisable warm and witty conversations dance around everything from health scares, jealousy and confessions, to TV incompatibility and sourdough bread.

In this episode, Roger is late home from a pub lunch and Joanna finds out he had a β€˜chance encounter’ on the train home with a former student and didn’t tell her.

Written for Joanna Lumley and Roger Allam by award-winning comedy writer and journalist Jan Etherington - who's been married for 34 years to Gavin Petrie, with whom she has created many hit Radio 4 Extra and TV series (Second Thoughts, plus Next of Kin, Faith in the Future, The Change),

Producer: Claire Jones

First broadcast on ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 4 in January 2021.
