You may like to see this attached to the Amazon which spells out my disappointment Some customers have correctly identified, on listening to this audiobook, that "Paul Temple East of Algiers" is a novelisation of the original radio drama "Paul Temple and the Sullivan Mystery".Francis Durbridge reworked a couple of his dramas into novels in this way - in this instance, switching locations (from Egypt to Algeria) and changing the names of some of the characters.It's clear from the blurbs that the stories are very similar - but the treatments, one a full-cast drama and the other a single-voice reading by Anthony Head are very different."Paul Temple East of Algiers" is the last Paul Temple recording currently available to BBC Audiobooks to offer consumers. We've published all the dramas available in the archive. There were only ever 8 novels - and with "Paul Temple East of Algiers" we have now recorded them all with Anthony Head.We felt strongly that we should no t refrain from making this title available in this form simply because a drama of a very similar story (albeit with a different title) already exists. Paul Temple fans are always eager for more ways to enjoy the brand. For many of them it is not the newness of the stories that is the appeal - but their very familiarity.However, for clarity, a reprint of the audio jacket has been put in hand explaining that "Paul Temple East of Algiers" is a novelisation of "Paul Temple and the Sullivan Mystery".
