The streets of Dijon are alive with odours - the smells of spiced cake, garlic, and wine sauces that have been present for generations. Leslie Forbes joins celebrated chef Jean-
Pierre Billoux and the Seysses - father and son - at their vineyard in Burgundy. Over a dish of oeufs en meurette - eggs in red wine sauce - she discovers the significance of memory in taste and smell.

Rudely Truncated
In the second of three documentaries charting the history of the Third
Programme and Radio 3, Humphrey Carpenter investigates how the Third captured the intellectual high-ground with talks by the likes of Isaiah Berlin and Bertrand Russell. The Hilda Tablet plays of Henry Reed offered a lighter touch, and the Third broadcast one of the most famous programmes ever - Under Milk Wood. In 1957, cuts to the Third provoked a high-profile protest campaign. Today's programme includes the first broadcast of a speech by TS Eliot as part of the protest, in which he defends the rights of those who prefer the symphony orchestra to the dance band.
Meanwhile, the arrival of William Glock brought more contemporary European music to the network, leading to rumours that some British composers were specifically excluded.
