Julie Hesmondhalgh chooses best of BBC Radio this week.

This week… come with us in our auditory TARDIS as we travel into the past. Patrick Kielty sends a postcard from home, we take a musical odyssey to the cusp of seventeen, combat melancholy using a four hundred year old self-help book and some cold water buzz, and banish worry with Phill Jupitus and Dire Straits. Memory, creativity, identity - and a bit of Joni Mitchell for good measure.  Come on in, there’s plenty of room....no honestly, it’s deceptively spacious inside....
