I found this radio play (or rather the information about it)

Olivia's Line by David Verela

Synopsis: Rome 1962: The biggest most expensive movie ever made is in production, Cleopatra, starring Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. The film is terribly delayed, massively over-budget and the co-stars are causing a terrific scandal.

Meanwhile Gil, the production meteorologist, has his eye on Olivia, one of Cleopatra's handmaidens but she's definitely not interested.

Gil....Andrew Scott
Olivia....Kelly Reilly
Steve....John Schwab
Mankiewicz....John Guerrasio
Simpson....Ryan McCluskey
GianFranco....Vincenzo Nicoli
Charlotte/Taylor....Helen Longworth
Burton....Tim Treloar
