Ed Reardon -- the novel

By Nicholas Clee
Publication: Bookseller
Date: Friday, May 20 2005
Tim Binding at Simon & Schuster has bought Christopher Douglas and Andrew Nickolds’ novelisation of their comedy series. "Ed Reardon’s Week" features Douglas as an irascible author for whom life has never been as good as it was in the 1980s, when he wrote an episode of "Tenko". First broadcast in

the 11.30 a.m. slot, the series was given a quick run of repeats at 6.30 on Thursday evenings.

Binding signed up the book in a direct deal with the authors, whose other comic hero is journeyman cricketer Dave Podmore. S&S will publish in the late autumn, when Ed Reardon will return for a second Radio 4 series.
