BBC Radio 4 - Pick of the Week, John Gallagher

John Gallagher chooses audio highlights from the past week.

Do bees have feelings?  What would a Radiohead cover of the Hokey Cokey sound like?  Is there a stew that can make you have twins?  This week’s best radio takes us from camping on campus to the ancient Roman holiday from hell, and has tips on bringing down a government and catching an international criminal (you have to start in Nottingham).  We dig into the ethics of lying to our loved ones and find out how a granny of good character can get her hands on a dirty book in 1930s Ireland... 

Presenter: John Gallagher
Producer: Elizabeth Foster
Production Co-ordinators: Pete Liggins & Paul Holloway
