Letter From Helvetica
We’re honoured and delighted also to be a sponsor of the Apple Top 40 fiction podcast, Letter From Helvetica, a scripted audio series produced by Oliver Crocker and brought to life by The Bill legends Andrew Mackintosh and Natalie Roles. If you love audio content in the tradition of some of the great BBC radio comedies and dramas, Letter from Helvetica is thoroughly recommended for you. Listen free on the major podcasting platforms.
“…The Letter from Helvetica Podcast (created and written by Andrew Mackintosh) follows the adventures of Abigail Wesley, a talented young botanist who is spending a year on the ever-so-slightly-made-up island of Burbango in the island nation of Vanuatu in the South Pacific, and her Uncle John, an acerbic retired Lieutenant Colonel who lives in the not-quite-real village of Helvetica in Cornwall…”





Andrew talks to us about creating, writing, and starring in Letter From Helvetica with Natalie Roles, as well as his fascinating career as an actor and music artist, in our episode A Conversation with Andrew Mackintosh.
