Bren and Hilly believe that ties to men are unreliable. Over time, men leave or they die. Only women friends survive the test of time. So when Hilly breaks her wrist she asks Bren to come and help her out, Bren drops everything. Together they anticipate the sweet female pleasures of long days, drinking, cooking, talking and comfortably trashing the years they were apart - that interlude of men. And so they do, until Bren finds out something about Hilly she didn't know before. Written by Lesley Bruce.

Eurovision Song Contest. "Norway - nul points" may no longer be true, but is it possible there might have been some collaboration between member states of the Eurovision Song Contest to keep Norway at the bottom of the pile? Since the late 1980s, media observers have noticed that some pairs of countries routinely give high scores to each other. There are suspicions that voting partnerships might now be turning into voting blocs. Are such phenomena statistically significant, or can they be explained by chance? Derek Gatherer, who has made a comparison of Eurovision Contest results, has some unusual answers. He joins Quentin Cooper to discuss collusive voting alliances.
