''Home Front'' is a British radio drama, broadcast on BBC Radio 4 since 4 August 2014. Set exactly one hundred years before the date of broadcast, ''Home Front'' tells the story of World War I from the perspective of those managing life in wartime Britain. It is part of the BBC’s World War I centenary season and is planned to run until 11 November 2018, the centenary of the Armistice. Each twelve-minute episode tells a fictional story set against a background of historical truth with at least one historical ‘fact of the day’ built into each episode. Each episode follows one character’s day. Together, they build into a mosaic of experience from a wide cross-section of British society. Episodes are broadcast Monday to Friday at 12:00 on BBC Radio 4, with an omnibus edition on Fridays at 21:00. There will be fifteen seasons in total, each season with a subtitle and a particular theme. Seasons average at eight weeks, with an eight-week gap between. All episodes (both individual and omnibus) are available for download as MP3s and will remain so indefinitely. The first season received generally favourable press coverage.〔]〕 For seasons one and two, Ciaran Bermingham and Sarah Morrison were production co-ordinators, the assistant producer was Leo McGann and the studio manager Martha Littlehailes. The theme music was composed by Matthew Strachan and performed by the BBC Concert Orchestra.〔(Matthew Strachan Home Front interview at BBC website )〕 == Season One: The Lost Boys == Season one of ''Home Front'' was first broadcast between 4 August 2014 and 3 October 2014. It is set in Folkestone, a fashionable Edwardian seaside resort that quickly became one of the hubs of the military machine and close enough to France to hear the fighting. The lead writer for series one was Katie Hims. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Home Front (BBC radio series)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
