Journalist and broadcaster Anna Foster picks the best of BBC Radio this week.

Journalist and broadcaster Anna Foster makes her pick of the best of BBC Radio this week.

In this week’s programme Anna Foster celebrates everything that makes us human. Our senses; how touch saves lives in an operating theatre and the unique smell of the first floating farm. The sheer force of will we employ in protecting the things we love, from the frontline of the protests in Baghdad to an urban park in Manchester. Not forgetting our unmistakable quirkiness, like the musicians building a pyramid from human ashes and the biologist who insists he speaks fluent whale. 

Producer: Cecile Wright
Production Coordinator: Kay Whyld
