If you WEre a boy, could you imagine your sister taking your place on a date with a girl, dressed as a boy? This brother-sister date-swap is the story line of a new Songbirds drama serial called Brother-Sister, Sister-Brother that begins tonight at 9.30pm on Radio 4 (FM 97.6).
Chris and Christine are twins who look alike except for the fact that Chris is a boy and Christine is a girl. They are very close to each other and when Chris is too ill to go out on a date with a girl, he arranges for Christine to dress up as a boy and take his place.
Below is the first part of Brother-Sister, Sister-Brother for you to read either before or while listening to the programme.
Chris: That's her ... over there.
Mark: With the long hair?
Chris: Yes.
Mark: And she lives in your block?
