John Waite makes his selection from the past seven days of BBC Radio

Don't be doing the washing up during John Waite's Pick of the Week on Sunday.
He's featuring a touching story about the late John Peel and his wife, and one of the listeners who requested it says she couldn't see the dishes for crying. He'll also be hearing about murder, mayhem and other unspeakable acts practised by the residents of Somerset. And that gravelly-voiced song-smith of doom and loss -Leonard Cohen - reveals his Mamma Mia side.
