Patricia Routledge and Prunella Scales star in the popular Radio 4 series, Ladies of Letters.

Patricia Routledge is Vera Smalls and Prunella Scales is her friend (or maybe enemy), Irene Spencer. The two pass their time in regular correspondance and not an event goes by that is left unrecorded by the ladies of letters.

Always polite but not always nice, the two ladies' letters are often acerbic, one might even say bitchy yet their subtle put downs create wonderful letters full of humour and insight into the ups and downs of family life.
