Antonia Quirke chooses her BBC Radio highlights.

Antonia Quirke chooses her BBC Radio highlights, including bare-faced bluffers, avid readers, celebrity therapists and the lows and highs of heroin.

Antonia Quirke selects the best in BBC radio in the last sevens days including wall-to-wall therapy sessions and recovery groups. Private letters written by a Pope to a cherished female friend, and a poet confessing to the delirious pleasures of bluffing. I encounter a childhood musical hero and we hear from the author outraged that his PM was so badly read he sent him a 101 books - to no apparent effect - And the Disney boss behind Frozen explains the secrets to its success.

Production team: Kevin Mousley, Kay Bishton and Elodie Chatelain.
