Audiobooks and radio dramas in movie-length (45min~3 hours long)
Yesterday, I really enjoyed listening to the BBC Radio 4 adaptation of Umberto Eco's The Name Of The Rose (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkpLbVtTAuk).
And today I'm wondering if anyone has any recommendations for similar audio-books which have multiple voice actors.
All genre is okay but preferably singular works that focus on story over recurring characters (anthology series are okay). Preferably works that are available on YouTube, or otherwise freely downloadable--but this is not a strict requirement.
It's unfortunately on Audible, but Catchers is a horror/sci-fi radio drama, if that's your thing.
I really like old time radio serials like "X Minus One" or the "Twilight Zone radio drama" revivals. Full cast audiobook wise, Good Omens was well done IMO. But if you're interested in BBC productions in particular, I really like using something like https://fourble.co.uk/ as an aggregator and going through their archives.
Archive.org also has a ton of BBC Radio dramas as well (Good Omens amongst them):

Edit: Oh, fourble just links to archive.org. :P
I can't tell if you mean 45 min - 3 hrs total or per episode, but here is Wolf 359 https://wolf359.fm/
It's a great sci-fi radio drama about a crew aboard a space station.
Each episode is about half an hour long, there's 4 seasons
