44 Scotland Street, Radio 4, preview Alexander McCall Smith's tales of a fictional tenement in a real Edinburgh street, shining vignettes and subtle character studies inspired by American writer Armistead Maupin's Tales of the City, are dramatised as the new Woman's Hour serial. We follow anthropologist Domenica Macdonald as she observes her neighbours - young Pat coming to flatshare with Bruce, five-year-old Bertie controlled by his pretentiously intellectual mother Irene, and Matthew, setting up an art gallery with little knowledge of either painting or painters. Carol Ann Crawford plays Domenica, the music is by Tom Cunningham. David Ian Neville produces. '44 Scotland Street' is on Radio 4 on Monday 30 April at 10.45am
