Foundation works pretty well as a BBC radio drama ( listenable for free at https://archive.org/details/IsaacAsimov-TheFoundationTrilogy ), as the actors actually manage to add some characterisation (though I loved Wood & Miles’ point that of course all the characters *should* speak in Brooklyn accents rather than RP).
Asimov may have been the best ideas man and worst prose stylist of all the “Golden Age” writers — and that’s saying something on both counts. His characters really suffer as a result of his basic inability to replicate human speech patterns.
