Lord Goring Acts 1, 2 and 4 are PL OK! :9:

One line missing from Act 3: "This is it?" (refers to the letter) missing at about 16:22 in the Act 3 file.

Here's Lady Markby, Act 2
https://librivox.org/uploads/kitty/idealhusband_ladymarkby_2.mp3 (9:41)

I noticed while editing that I seem to have lost my "attempted" British accent, though I'm not sure how consistent it was in the first act... :shock:
But Lady Markby seems a bit "high society American" here in act 2, and not the "pseudo" British I was going for in act 1. I think the voice is close enough, however, and I don't have time to redo anything right now due to health issues. But if this play is still not finished when I'm back in action, I could redo some lines. :D

Happy Listening!

Lady Markby is all PL OK! :thumbs: Brilliantly read, and I don't think the accents are too different! Thanks very much, you are all done! :clap:

Here is Sir Robert Chiltern. Let me know if anything needs correcting. :)

In Act 3 there are two lines missing at 3:38:
"God grant it! God grant it!"
"But there is something more I have to tell you, Arthur."


Act 4 is PL OK - very nice characterisation here! I'll listen to the first two acts when I have a bit more time. If you prefer, you can wait until I've done those two acts before making these corrections, that's fine.

Act 1 is PL OK!

Act 2 has a PL note:
@0:09 line should be "When could I have told her?"

So that's just Act 2 and Act 3 that need corrections. While you are at it, could you please redo your voice credit in one of these files? Here it is again: SIR ROBERT CHILTERN, Bart., Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs (The Bart. stands for Baronet, please say the title in full.)

Thank you for the notes, Beth. I've recorded a new credit in the Act 2 file and uploaded both for spot PL. :thumbs:

Oh, uh, I might not have been clear here. The added lines for Act 3 were also uploaded. Sorry for the confusion. :?

Thanks Rob! Act 3 is now PL OK - and I assume you are still OK to edit, as I think the recording for this project is almost there. I've reminded Larry that the narration files are now due and I'm recording Lady Chiltern today!

I'll still put a note in the MW that the new voice credit in your new name is only in the Act 3 file, though I suppose you know that! So, does the name change reflect a real life change also... ?
