Mediocre White Male [Drama]

Welcome to Lander Castle and Gardens, one of England's least visited heritage sites. Steeped in history dating back to the Middle Ages, Lander Castle's many attractions include jousting, its bucolic gardens, live actors and, of course, the legendary Turret of Terror, where the spirit of the castle's former owner Sir Fulke Treville is said to still haunt the halls.

It's nearing the end of the day at the castle and visitors are petering out. Up in the Turret, the human statue of Sir Fulke has time on his hands and a story to share.

The drama contains discussion of inappropriate abusive relationships.

Written by Will Close and Joe Von Malachowski.

Performed by Will Close, with additional parts played by Rhiannon Neads, Kitty O'Sullivan, Josh Bryant-Jones, Tyler Cameron and Will Kirk.

Produced by Sasha Yevtushenko for BBC Radio 4.
