If you are a fan of the Lord of the Rings or Narnia movies or Downtown Abbey or Foyle's War or any of Kenneth Branagh's Shakespeare films, you will recognize the voices!
Don't mean to high jack this In Freedom's Cause post, but these GA Henty audio plays are great!!! My Y7 listened to In Freedom's Cause before she read (not on purpose, but they were Christmas present and she couldn't wait!) I think it made the read more enjoyable for her.
One drawback is the price---especially if you are used to free audio.
They ran a special before Christmas where you received two CDs of each audio drama for $80 as a set. Yes, it's pricey. That prevented me from getting them sooner. But these CDs get more playing time at our house than just about anything else. And we had some to give as gifts, which is a plus!
