Susan Roberts Radio Plays
Susan Roberts is a radio producer who works for BBC Radio Drama North. She was heavily involved (though not as producer) in the 27-episode series of Zola adaptations which recently ended and which received an award for the Best Adaptation 2017.

Nell Leyshon's play, THE COLOUR OF MILK (R4, 1415, 2 May 13) was set in 1830. A farmer's young daughter is asked to care for the vicar's sick wife, and live in. The invalid gradually deteriorates and dies, but the girl is kept on. The vicar starts to teach her how to read and write. But there is a dark side to the drama; to paraphrase Jane Anderson in RT: She's direct and outspoken and bold, but the vicar seems to enjoy her frankness; he pleasures in her company too much. He makes excuses to keep her in his service and takes her new duties to an unpleasant new level. The cast included Carly Bawden, Peter Hamilton Dyer and Jonathan Keeble; the producer was Susan Roberts. (.....ND, Diversity website review, Sept 2013)
