I started smiling as soon as the narration began. This is an incredibly sound rich, dramatic piece of fiction. The accents that could use some work, and the plosives popped a bit when the Scottish character appeared, but these errors are somewhat covered up by background of sheep, hens, and footsteps. I lost track of which character was which a little ways in, but the narrative kept moving. At times, it seemed that the story was trying to do too many things at once, but overall it was an enjoyable listen. The narrator and character acting was passionate, the scene setting and sound effects were perfect, and dramatic flare was in no short supply. It's always nice to get back to the fictional bit of storytelling in radio, and this story satisfied my craving for old time soaps, for now.
