brilliant finale: good wins, bad loses. :thumbs: for a moment I thought Lord Brumpton would die of the shock and pleasure of being reunited with his son :lol: that would have been a tragedy (except for Lady Brumpton).

No notes this time, all is where it should be. :thumbs: Good job again, Todd. PL ok.

yes I know of such days too. But happy that you could hand it in now for the weekend :9:

I ADORE the raspy voice :thumbs: wonderfully done. You're lucky it wasn't a huge role or this might have ruined your vocal chords LOL

but: don't run away yet, there is something needs fixing:

> voice credit: Tatter, a soldier, read by....

> and you missed the ALL line: "Bless your honour" at the end of the act

would it be possible to record them still ? Then all is done.

Thanks

Okay! Act 1 ready for Spot PL with final voice credits and other suggested fix. (I did not add in the word Prologue - I think it is okay without it.)

Act 4 with Tatter added in ready for final PL.

Everyone sounds great in this. I'll offer Steele's next play - The Lying Lover - same Gutenberg script file - shortly.

Thanks, Todd

Ok, Act 1 is PL ok.

And also Act 4 was wonderful to listen to. The scene with the soldiers and Kate was predictably entertaining :clap: Must have been a riot on stage with so many people.

I have one note for your consideration:

> at 0:36: this may be optional, but I think we need an "aside" here before "I am reduced to a necessity of trusting him" because it's not so clear that she is not saying this aloud to Trusty which would sound strange :hmm: I leave that up to you, Todd.

For the rest, all is perfect. This play can get archived today :9: Looking forward to the next Steele.

Act 4 fix done. Visually in Audacity it was very clear that widow went from normal speech to a quieter aside - but your listening is the test that matters!

perfect now, also you had a good idea to leave a bit more space before she starts speaking to Trusty again, it conveys the previous aside very well and shows where it ends. :thumbs:

PL ok now and ready to be carried off... Steele would have been proud of our troupe :9:
