Stewart Henderson chooses his BBC Radio highlights.

In this Bank Holiday Pick of the Week Poet and Lyricist Stewart Henderson presents a distinctive mix of music, memory and powerful witness from the margins. 

We hear accounts of growing up as an immigrant in a hostile and far from green and pleasant land, head to the Lake District where wood is transformed into an acoustic shape of beauty and how a pound in the pocket is a parent's best friend. And along the way we hear songs that have sound tracked our lives. 

Produced by Kay Whyld in Salford.

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