Leighton Bassett

Welcome to Leighton Bassett, the corporation's brand new interactive soap, following the lives, loves and dramas of our exciting group of characters, aged between 18 and 60. It is an unique experiment in serial drama, where the listener has total control of creative process. We don't know what happens next. You chose what happens to our cast of characters, from a menu of options devised by our in-house writing team.

Last week's voting results are as follows:

Option 1) Barbara decides to start up her own business - 0 votes
Option 2) Ed discovers he is adopted - 4 votes
Option 3) Emma quits university to become a pop singer - 2 votes
Option 4) Something else - 15,540 votes

Yes 99.9% of the listeners voted for Option 4), something else. According to our poll you voted that all the characters should die in a massive explosion - every single one of them.

So this week in Leighton Bassett, we start again with a brand new cast of characters: Angela, Tim and Sunil. Voting starts now. The opening scene begins with Angela and Sunil moving into their new home in Leighton Bassett, when their neighbour Tim pays them a visit. What happens next?

Option 1) Tim antagonises Sunil with a poorly chosen joke
Option 2) Angela falls in love with Tim
Option 3) Sunil becomes a drug addict
Option 4) Something else

The interactive soap YOU control!


'I've worked as drama producer for over twenty years, winning numerous awards, and used to think that the key to great dramas was well-written scripts and actors. But after a meeting with the Head of Creative Imaginings, I realised that embracing new ways of interacting with audiences was crucial to my long-term future. So I'm delighted to be working on this exciting new project.' Edward Tolworth. Edward produced the much-loved serial drama Black Tears, set in a depressed coal-mining village in Lancashire.
