Neil Forsyth (2011 Event)
The BBC Radio adaptation of Forsyth's Delete This at Your Peril catapulted the fictional Dundonian anti-hero Bob Servant to national attention.

In this very special event, Bob Servant himself was joined by some guest actors to bring his exuberant emails to life in this unmissable live performance at the 2011 Edinburgh International Book Festival.
