Geoff Ward examines the strange life and terrifying world of HP Lovecraft, hailed as America's greatest horror author since Poe. During his life, Lovecraft's work was confined to lurid pulp magazines and he died in penury in 1937. Today his stories are considered modern classics and published in prestigious editions. How did such a weird, wild and ungodly figure get canonized? Among the writers considering his legacy are Neil Gaiman, ST Joshi, Kelly Link, Peter Straub, and China Mieville.

By Gregory Burke. A radio version of the National Theatre of Scotland's award-winning stage production. Hurtling from a pool room in Fife to an armoured wagon in Iraq, Black Watch is based on interviews conducted by Burke with former soldiers who served as part of the Coalition. Viewed through the eyes of those on the ground, the play reveals what it means to belong to the legendary Scottish regiment and to be part of the war on terror. This play contains very strong language.
