Resumen del Editor
This is the second series of one-off comedies written by the genius behind the smash-hit radio sitcom Cabin Pressure - John Finnemore. The first series won the coveted Writers Guild of Great Britain award for Best Comedy.
Each show is a comedy perfumed by just two actors - including (across the series) famous household names such as Martin Clunes (Doc Martin), Julia McKenzie (Fresh Fields) and the inimitable voice of Carolyn in Cabin Pressure, Stephanie Cole.
The show comes from Pozzitive, proud producers of Cabin Pressure, Thanks A Lot, Milton Jones!, Jeremy Hardy Speaks To The Nation, The Brig Society, The Castle, Armando Iannucci's Charm Offensive, Shush! and Kevin Eldon Will See You Now....
Stephanie Cole and Kerry Godliman (Derek) star in the first episode - 'The Queen's Speech' - Victoria is very much hoping to see a conjuror, or at the very least a parrot - but instead meets Mabel....
In Episode 2, Julia McKenzie (Fresh Fields) and Gus Brown star in 'Mercy Dash' - Malcolm needs some help. Sue has a spot of time on her hands. Winchester beckons....
In the third show, newcomers Kieran Hodgson (2017 South Bank Arts - Breakthrough Comedy Award) and Ethan Lawrence (Bad Education) are Pidge and Gavin in 'Here's What We Do' - Pidge and Gavin! The old team back together again for one last mission....
And Show 4 pairs the inimitable Una Stubbs (Sherlock) and Tamzin Outhwaite (Redcap) in 'The Rebel Alliance' - Eileen and Lizzie are both determined to enjoy the wedding. No matter what Yvonne does....
Show 5 stars Martin Clunes (Doc Martin) and Tom Goodman-Hill (Humans) with a bit of 'Penguin Diplomac'"- when a chance meeting between Søndergaard and Bunning could very well lead to a new Cold War....
And John Finnemore himself stars in the final show alongside comedy hero Michael Palin in 'The Wroxton Box' - Alec is late as usual. But Percy is wearing different socks. Something big is brewing....

Historia
Five years ago, the US Space Force became a reality. And while those writing the checks took things very seriously, the other military branches did not. As a result, Space Force was populated by undesirables. My name is Captain Ethan Stone, a decorated member of SEAL Team Six turned Space Force "recruit". Flash forward five years and between tenses. President West is in office. Power has shifted. And Space Force is defunded. With just a handful of us still living on base, we find ourselves being evicted. But before all of us can leave, aliens invade.

Historia
Hilarious, fascinating, and a roller coaster of dizzying, historical what-ifs, Napoleon's Hemorrhoids is a potpourri for serious historians and casual history buffs. In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

Historia
“The Heron” is the nickname a big-city accountant has attached to himself in his new home near San Diego, where he’s using the alias to avoid a hit man who may be after him. It seems a former client believes that The Heron has skipped town with several million dollars not his own. Don Winslow’s ensuing, entertaining yarn is by turns twisty, dark, and comical as we observe the delicate dance between the pursuer and the pursued.

What would happen if a shy introvert lived like a gregarious extrovert for one year? If she knowingly and willingly put herself in perilous social situations that she’d normally avoid at all costs? Writer Jessica Pan intends to find out. With the help of various extrovert mentors, Jessica sets up a series of personal challenges (talk to strangers, perform stand-up comedy, host a dinner party, travel alone, make friends on the road, and much, much worse) to explore whether living like an extrovert can teach her lessons that might improve the quality of her life.

Samantha is a professional seductress and con artist with a heart of gold. If she talked about her work, she’d tell you she only pilfers organs for medical research and that she only takes one kidney, and she only steals those kidneys from dishonest people. It’s hell on her social life. Abe is the doctor and Sam's partner in crime. He isn’t much of a criminal. Except for the kidney stealing. But he’s using that money to fund his research that he anticipates will be able to cure diabetes. So, all for a good cause...? You decide. Of course, it's hell on his social life.

For three decades, Rupert Hardacre was one of the big beasts of advertising: he worked hard, played hard, and lived hard. But he fell harder. Driven out of every reputable agency in town for drinking all their whiskey and sleeping with all their wives, he used the remains of his fortune to found Hardacre's, the best (and only) advertising agency on the M25. Now he's so confident that his name alone will take him back to the top, he's happy to leave all the actual work to the creative department.

Historia
For three decades, Rupert Hardacre was one of the big beasts of advertising: he worked hard, played hard, and lived hard. But he fell harder. Driven out of every reputable agency in town for drinking all their whiskey and sleeping with all their wives, he used the remains of his fortune to found Hardacre's, the best (and only) advertising agency on the M25. Now he's so confident that his name alone will take him back to the top, he's happy to leave all the actual work to the creative department.

Mixed Bag
What did you love best about John Finnemore's Double Acts: Series 2?
John is one of the best writers in his field. He's amazing. He writes some of the most clever stuff that has ever been put on paper, then on radio. Series One of Double Acts was absolutely masterful. 'Red Handed' is a marvel of writing. So clever it defies description. Out of the 6 episodes of Series One, 5 of them are "boundaries" for six. Only one stays inside the field of play but even then is a 4 just tapping the rope.
This series is hit and miss. There are 2 Great. 2 Quite Good. 1 Good, and 1 not very clever. The not very clever one is just preaching, without the twist of mystery, or phrasing.
John is so good, such a good writer and thinker. The one story, while I have no quarrel with the subject matter, is merely two characters standing on a soap box. Which is fine. He can write what he wants and has every right to do so, and it won't stop me from pre-ordering everything that comes from his mind and pen.
Comparing the stories of Series One to Series Two isn't really fair. They are in two different leagues. I have literally listened to Series One two dozen times at least. Series Two will have to pick and choose.
But again. John Finnemore is a genius. He's not just funny and clever, he's a genius. How he tied together "Cabin Pressure" in Zurich is a masterpiece in literature. I heartily recommend anything he does. His genius is just too great. He has the right to write what he wants, and his audience will continue to purchase in droves as they should, but these six stories are just a bit of a step slower than Series One.
The acting in these stories is superb. No quarrel there. Easily as good as Series One. The production, sound, editing, foley, and all other aspects of the episodes is again first class all the way.
What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
You'l have to listen to them
Which character – as performed by John Finnemore – was your favorite?
They are all great.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Mostly made me Laugh Out Loud
Any additional comments?
I can't wait for the next "Souvenir Programme" to come out. Already have it on pre-order.

I’m crazy about these beautiful and funny stories
I’m a huge fan of all John Finnemore’s work, and have listened to Cabin Pressure and John Finnemore’s Souvenir Program several times, so I’m so happy to have these Double Acts.
Sometimes during the setup for the act I’ll think “hmm, I’m not sure I’ll be particularly interested in this one,” and I’m ALWAYS wrong. They are always spectacular.

Vintage John Finnemore
John continues to deliver the laughs in beautiful and unexpected ways. In the space of 30 minutes he tells a story that makes you fall in love with the characters and wish there was more. He captures the human condition so well that anyone can relate and smile at our own quirks.

Delightful! Again!!
More clever hilarity from hands-down the best comedy writer I know!
Second only to his Cabin Pressure series…maybe!
Thank you John Finnemore! Penguin Diplomacy is the gem of this series, I’d say!

John Finnemore is an international treasure!
I've loved all of his material that's available on Audible. Cabin Pressure is brilliant! Souvenir Programme is hilarious! And his new show Double Acts is fantastic!
While not a true comedy program, Double Acts series one featured an awesome cast and brilliant writing. This series 2 is no exception. Once again the cast for each story are all great and Finnemore's writing is as amazing as ever. Each story is different, but they are all supremely entertaining.
I really hope that John Finnemore writes a series 3 for Double Acts and continues creating more series for the Souvenir Programme as well. And that they will be available on Audible!

Laughter, laughter more laughter
very funny. if you're unfamiliar with a British accent, then become familiar on the lighter side. No Piers Morgan stuffiness to be found here, just laughter. I will listen to this several more times to be sure.

Yes, it's a lot of fun - will listen again too
John Finnemore is talented, and the actors are talented. This is quality entertainment, witty, human, and insightful. And, funny.
My favorite is the fifth play. I have listened to it over and over again in 2018. When I first putchased this Series 2 I was still looking for another Cabin Pressure - a long running series of interactions with the same characters that evolve over time. I set this aside after one listen, but reloaded it into my ipod in 2018 for another go.
The fifth radio drama, Penguin Diplomacy, upon relistening this year, was deeper and more sophisticated and layered than I had picked up on in the first listen. I think it is the very best drama/comedy/play I have ever listened to. While relistening I discovered nuances I had missed before. The writing and acting and sound effects are all top notch.
