Writer and Broadcaster Farrah Jarral makes her pick of the best of this week’s BBC Radio.

Have you ever wondered how porcupines make love, whether people have the same homing instincts as pigeons, and why do we cry? There may be more questions than answers, but we do our best to offer some practical enlightenment, while lulling you into a state of hypnotic, spiritual contentment. We turn our gaze on men as well as women, find out what it’s like to be called Simon, and learn what it means to be British. Plus there’s a chilly tale from a remote Arctic island that will warm any heart

Presenter: Farrah Jarral
Producer: Cecile Wright
