On a darker note, Rachel’s ‘Devoted Admirer’ stalker letters are becoming increasingly scary. However this sinister element in Rachel’s life is the one thing that seems to draw her closer to her sister, Lou. Both speculate about who the mystery sicko could be – a character Alan Fletcher voices with unsettling authenticity….

They say it’s hard to have all THREE major aspects of one’s life going swimmingly at the same time – love life, career and home life – and this definitely applies to Rachel right now.

While her relationship with Mitch is moving forward delightfully – even marking a mini anniversary – her relationship with her mercurial boss Helmut is declining at a rapid rate…

Rachel's love life is blooming but the same can't be said about her relationship with her boss...

To make matters worse, her stalker reappears with a vengeance after a six month absence. And I have to say, this means you will hear Alan Fletcher as you’ve never heard him before. In fact, I’ll bet you didn’t know he could sound SO sinister!!

A pivotal chapter for Rachel in both her professional and private lives… starting with a girls’ night where Rachel and her friends gather to give Kate support after her drink-spiking episode.

Then FINALLY, Rachel and Mitch get to spend an evening together. And I thought last week’s chapter was spicy! 😱

Think I shocked myself reading this week’s chapter!

There’s also a very strange interaction between Rachel and her boss which leaves Rachel wondering if she’s made the right decision about Friday night drinks…

Only four male characters for Mr Fletcher to play this week – but it did require the ability to switch from the seductive tones of Mitch Allan to the steely anger of Helmut Becker in the space of a few pages. Of course he did all this perfectly – as you will hear.

A saucy chapter ahead! Rachel finally has her day trip to the coast with Mitch which brings on a real ‘WILL THEY OR WON’T THEY?’ moment.

Will they or won't they?? What happens when Mitch takes Rachel on a day trip to the beach...

Not to mention the outrageous conversation she has with her Boss, Helmut ,after he returns from a boozy lunch.

A more laid back week for Mr Fletcher – only four male characters for him to perform. And I must says he brings each one to life superbly!

AT LAST – Rachel finally gets to present her first EVER news bulletin!

Pin It
Happy days for Rachel… or ARE they?

But all doesn’t go as well as she’d hoped. Could she blame her clumsy first bulletin on a frightening delivery to her desk only hours before?

Rachel had been warned by her new boos to be on her best behaviour!

Rachel’s co-reader isn’t as supportive as she would have liked on her debut news-reading night

On the upside, Mitch gives her another opportunity to spend some time with him and FINALLY she agrees.

Rachel is even making progress with the concept of making sensible decisions about her social life – ditching the nightclub scene and drinking with the girls for time with family – even though time with Lou is never going to be a picnic…

A challenging week for Alan Fletcher – having to voice TWELVE male characters. Not an easy task by any means but being the true professional he is, he does a sterling job.
