Tipperary, 1895. Bridget Cleary's not feeling quite herself. Her husband believes she has been taken by fairies and a changeling left in her place, with devastating consequences.
A lovely BBC production to while away a winter afternoon. I'd been listening to something else on BBC Radio 4 and forgotten that I had auto play on so this began playing unexpectedly. It was a bit confusing at first and I almost turned it off, but I'm glad I didn't. What actually kept me was realizing it was discussing THE Bridget Cleary of whom I was aware; a maddeningly heartbreaking story.
This was a creepy bit of psychological fairytale and quite thought provoking
