Audiobooks narrated by Bernard Cribbins

Perks in The Railway Children, Wilfred Mott in Doctor Who, and the voice that told The Wombles on television and stories on Jackanory. On the UK store he reads The Wombles, Winnie-the-Pooh and The House at Pooh Corner, and Dick King-Smith's Sophie stories, and has parts in BBC radio productions — The Hobbit and the Narnia Silver Chair among them, both on this site's comparisons as dramatisations rather than readings.
