Jason Isaacs reads a gloriously grumpy letter written by the creator of Withnail & I

In 1987, the year Withnail & I was released, its creator, Bruce Robinson, wrote a letter to his friend and star of the film, Richard E. Grant, who at the time was away filming in Israel.
Jason Isaacs joined us to read it at Letters Live at Wilderness Festival, Oxfordshire, in the summer of 2023.

The fact that this curmudgeonly rant was addressed to the sweet soul of Richard E. Grant makes it even more delicious. 😂 Jason Isaacs is brilliant as ever.

The fact is is that this definitely sounds a LOT like if Withnail wrote a letter.
