The best of BBC Radio this week with John Waite

John Waite introduces some typically caustic words of wisdom from Jo Brand on how to survive a family Christmas. For forty years DJ Mark Talbot has hosted the longest running radio show never broadcast. We’ll be tuning in, though. And Good Heaven’s Watson – is that a monstrous hound? No, it’s only Barry Cryer in a new Sherlock Holmes spoof.

Producer: Stephen Garner

Production support: Helen Surtees
