BBC Radio 4 - Pick of the Week, Sheila McClennonClose menu

The best of BBC Radio this week with broadcaster Sheila McClennon.

Broadcaster Sheila McClennon makes her pick of the best of this week's BBC Radio.

There’s music and laughter this week – with Max Bruch’s Violin Concerto under the microscope, Ralph McTell’s song for the girl who captured his heart fifty years ago, relationship advice from a NOT so sweet old lady, and a young Afghan musician and his love at first sight - a piano.

Comedy comes from Clare in the Community fulfilling a life-long dream with a Dimbleby, the spoof news team Agendum and orthodox Jewish comedian – Ashley Blaker. 
 
And if that’s not enough – there’s a plague of rats in India, an ode to the River Hull and director Stanley Kubrick’s Odyssey to find a new Post It note.

Producer:  Cecile Wright

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