A-MNEMONIC is thrilled to have composed the original score for BBC Radio 4’s brand-new audio dramatisation of Ian Fleming’s Casino Royale, airing this Easter Sunday. Broadcasting at 3pm on 20th April 2025, this special one-hour production brings Bond’s first mission vividly to life.
Scored by A-MNEMONIC’s Toby Jarvis, the music plays a central role in the storytelling – guiding listeners through smoky casinos, high-stakes showdowns, and tense interrogations. Every note was carefully crafted to heighten the drama, evoke atmosphere, and capture the sleek, dangerous world of 007. The score doesn’t just set the tone – it helps shape each scene and enhance the emotional and psychological tension throughout.
The adaptation boasts an A-list cast: Toby Stephens returns as the iconic James Bond, joined by Downton Abbey’s Hugh Bonneville as the villainous Le Chiffre. Susannah Fielding (This Time with Alan Partridge) stars as the mysterious Vesper Lynd, and Josh Stamberg (WandaVision, The Morning Show) plays CIA agent Felix Leiter. The ensemble cast delivers a gripping performance that brings Fleming’s original novel to life in a new and thrilling format.
Don’t miss this exciting take on the original Bond adventure – tune in to BBC Radio 4 or BBC Sounds at 3pm this Easter Sunday for an hour of espionage, elegance, and thrilling Bond action.
