BBC Radio 4 - Pick of the Week, 12/01/2014Close menu

Catherine Bott makes her selection of the best of the previous seven days of BBC Radio.

On Pick of the Week this week, I are mostly thinking of moving to Mexico to reap the benefits of informal commerce - or maybe just sitting by the fire to read the novels of John Updike as recommended by David Baddiel. There'll be two trumpeters - one in drag - and a dramatic coming out in a Chinese restaurant in Northamptonshire. I-Spy for motorists in Wales, developments in hearing aids, a Victorian Top of the Pops imagined by Charles Chilton, and as always some compelling, eloquent voices.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
