BBC Radio 4 - Pick of the Week, 25/11/2012Close menu

Catherine Bott makes her selection from the past seven days of BBC Radio.

This week, Pick of the Week hears the chilling tale of Lancashire's Pendle Witch Trials, and about a modern exorcist in Leicester. There's mockery with monocles from those caddish toffs the Western brothers, who were nevertheless "frightfully BBC", and news of an African campaign to send radiator-aid to Norway. 

Eddie Mair goes country, Peter White goes back to school and a soprano packs up her souvenirs: that's all in Pick of the Week, presented by Catherine Bott.
