# The Leopard in Autumn

Networks named by its archives: BBC. Heard 2001. 12 episodes.

BBC Radio comedy about the ruling family of Renaissance Italy's most inconsequential city-state. In Monte Guano, a ridiculously small and penniless principality in Renaissance Italy, Prince Ludovico II finds his rule constantly undermined by those around him: his shrewd wife, his official mistress and his three disappointing - if not outright humiliating - sons. As well as having to manage the ever-increasing tributes demanded by the Pope, Prince Ludovico must also contend with feeble conscripts in search of war booty, getting on the pilgrim map, fake currency, religious battles and worst of all, English tourists. Can they keep their family together despite the chaos of their lives? Cast: Ludovico ..... David Swift Plethora ..... Sian Phillips Francesco ..... Graham Crowden Alessandro ..... Paul Bigley Rosalie ..... Saskia Wickham Salvatore ..... Nick Romero Guido ..... Christopher Kelham Brother Michael/Father Ignazio ..... Kim Wall Lord Luton ..... Nicholas Grace Devised by Neal Anthony Written by Neal Anthony, Roger Danes and Sue Limb Produced by Helen Williams and Dawn Ellis Series 1 First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in April 2001

Nothing here is called public domain on this site's say-so. In the United States, sound recordings first fixed before 15 February 1972 have federal protection under the Music Modernization Act of 2018, for most until 2067 at the latest, so most American radio of the 1930s to the 1950s is not in the public domain there. Each set shows the licence, mark or statement its archive gives, and says whose it is.
