What the reviewers said about the Sensitive dramas


"The genre of 'psychological thriller', so often a get-out for pretentious writing neither psychological nor thrilling, comes into its own north of the border. Alistair Jessiman's The Sensitive (Radio 4 2.15pm) is gripping well beyond its afternoon play slot."

Financial Times

"...irrestible flourishes of heart-stopping tension. I loved it"

Radio Times

"... the drama confirms the high quality of recent Afternoon Plays on the station."

Glasgow Herald

"There's a quiet intensity to these Thomas Soutar dramas which gets under your skin."

Saturday Mail
