Liz Barclay chooses her BBC Radio highlights.

In a week that's reverberated with stories of human fortitude and endurance and feats of kindness and daring do we have a mix of poignant stories: a mother and her dead son, a father with a devastating message to deliver, and another making repeated attempts to be with his precious family across an seemingly impenetrable border; a husband with his dying wife........ we defy you not to blink away a few tears - but the artists, the musical comedy and the whistling - yes whistling - will make you smile too..... 

Presenter: Liz Barclay
Producer: Stephen Garner
Production Support: Kay Bishton.

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