Withering Sh*tes: Radio 3 turns Bront� blue | Media Monkey

BBC Radio 3 has shifted the focus on to language with its latest adaptation of Wuthering Heights ? but not Emily Bront�'s classic prose. The station warns that this weekend's radio play will include "strong expletives", with Heathcliff and Cathy speaking as they have never been heard before. The Daily Mail reports that playwright and director Jonathan Holloway said: "The F-words are part of my attempt to shift the production to left field, and to help capture the shock that was associated with the original book when it was published." With headlines around the world, the drama is definitely making waves.
