Alpha and Omega (radio plays)

Alpha and Omega are two radio plays written by Mike Walker, first broadcast on the BBC World Service in 2001 and 2002 respectively, and later on BBC Radio 4 and BBC 7. The plays address religious and philosophical issues like the existence of God, and the question of what separates humans from robotic automata.

Alpha won the Best Radio Drama Award in the 2001 Sony Radio Awards. Omega won two Worldplay awards in 2002, for Best Script and Best Production.[1]

Both plays star David Calder as the lead actor, featured music composed and played by David Chiltern, and were produced by Gordon House.
