The project was created and overseen by BBC Radio Drama Producer for Special Projects, Conor Lennon.

The City Speaks was broadcast on BBC Radio 4 and on digital TV (under the red button on cable and freeview) on the 19 and 20 March 2008.

The six films were also available on the BBC Film Network website.
