Anoraks

Hywel and Rhian are regulars on a forgotten rural train platform. They bring tea, biscuits, and an agreement never to interfere. Whatever happens, they watch.Across six short, real-time episodes, ordinary waiting gives way to something deeply wrong. A woman digs beside the tracks. A chase ends in silence. A handbag contains the wrong thing. The signal box wakes up. The crows gather. And still, Hywel and Rhian stay put.As incidents repeat and patterns emerge, the station begins to feel less like a place and more like a system — one that knows who is watching. Rhian’s calm hints at understanding. Hywel’s certainty unravels. And when a timetable appears listing events that haven’t happened yet, it becomes clear that observation may come at a cost. Anoraks is a darkly comic audio micro-series about routine, bystanders, and the horror of waiting too long to act — where the trains are never on time, and leaving may no longer be an option.
