BBC Radio 4 - Pick of the Week, 25/09/2016Close menu

Highlights of the past seven days of BBC Radio.

In the selections this week we've got a deep and meaningful deconstruction from Rene Descartes, there's a soul searching ramble with David Nicholls, a rather jaunty trip to Hastings and vocalist Helen Forrest talks about the King of Swing.
From shrinking populations to shrinking elves, Mark Steel sizes up Hebden Bridge and uncovers the hippie within. There's power from poets, presidential hopefuls and a past prime minister.
The IPlayer pick comes from John Hegley.
Producer: Stephen Garner
The Pick of the Week Production Team: Rachel Gill and Hannah Barlow.

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