The new Dan Dare Adventures by B7 Media based on the classic character created for the Eagle comic  are heading to BBC Radio 4 Extra’s 7th Dimension.

The first three episodes (Vol 1) will now be broadcast as two-parters (but not a conventional half-hour) from Sunday, 5 August at 6.30pm-7.00pm. Voyage to Venus, The Red Moon Mystery, Marooned on Mercury were released last year (read our review here). Ed Stoppard stars as the quintessential British hero, with Geoff McGivern as Digby, Heida Reed as Professor Peabody and Raad Rawi as the Mekon.

New artwork has been prepared to go with the radio release, designed by Mark Plastow with art by Brian Williamson.
