The Concept of a Unique Radio Drama

A quirky radio drama set in a noir style revolves around a character named Stiff Johnny Mac, who is a necrophiliac private investigator. The drama was created in an attempt to compete with established shows like 'The Archers', reflecting a time when creativity was dwindling in the industry. Despite its intriguing premise, the drama faced swift backlash, leading to its short run primarily due to complaints about its controversial subject matter rather than the format itself. This illustrates the challenges faced in pushing creative boundaries within traditional media landscapes.
