    I can't seem to find it anywhere. I had them all on tape, but no longer. It was my favorite version back then. If you know anything about this production, please let me know. Thanks.

    First of all, welcome to AJB, Four of diamonds. -{ You might like to formally introduce yourself here: https://www.ajb007.co.uk/topic/34154/welcome-comings-goings/page/82/

    I'm afraid I've not heard of that one before, despite having a deep interest in the radio Bonds. Was it one of those novel readings as opposed to a radio play? Of course I was only born in the 1980s (I'm 33) but I've not heard of this one before. I hope someone out there has a recording of it, though, and can help you out. :)

    Is it this version with Sir Ian McKellen and Toby Stephens ?
    Sadly I don't think these plays are commercially available.

    You can find it on youtube. Definitely recommend it, it's good fun. Some other novels are there also.

    The OP is looking for a reading of the Goldfinger novel on BBC Radio from some time in the 1980s however, as opposed to the radio play which dates from 2010. It sounds more like Radio 4's Book at Bedtime or something like that.
