A rower, a resistance fighter, a historian, a historian and a jazz musician.

Andrea Catherwood on rower Dan Topolski, resistance fighter Lady Villiers, historian John Davies, humanitarian Dr Tim Lusty and jazz musician Clark Terry.

Andrea Catherwood tells the life stories of Dan Topolski the inspirational and at times controversial Oxford University rowing coach; Lady Villiers, a Belgian Resistance leader who spied from inside her family Chateau; Wales's pre-eminent historian and commentator John Davies; Dr Tim Lusty, Oxfam humanitarian whose innovations changed famine relief efforts and jazz musician and stylist Clark Terry.

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