In search of the elusive SAT lamprey she discovers a diversity of wildlife found in the SAT river. SAT SAT At Cenarth Falls she meets Peter Davis, the last coracle SAT maker in the village, and talks about the traditional hand SAT crafting process of this ancient vessel. Peter holds one of SAT only twelve licences on the Teifi River which allows him to SAT fish five days a week from a coracle where his favourite SAT catch is sea trout. She also pops into the National Coracle SAT Centre to talk to owner, Martin Fowler and see his SAT collection of coracles from around the world. Here she SAT discovers that coracles were used at Cenarth to encourage SAT sheep in and out of the river so that their fleeces could be SAT washed before shearing. SAT SAT In the 19th century there were fifty-two water-powered mills SAT making Welsh flannel, woven blankets and nursing shawls. A SAT visit to the National Wool Museum reveals the value of the SAT Welsh nursing shawl and 'The Mighty Mule' used for spinning SAT threads.

SAT SAT With the resurgence of interest in the use of traditional SAT wool cloth for textile design a bright future is seen for SAT those mills still in operation. However, there is now only SAT one mill left in the valley which is water-powered. Felicity SAT meets Donald Morgan at Rock Woollen Mill in Capel Dewi.

SAT SAT Charlotte also hears about one farmer who has stayed true to SAT the traditional ways of working.

SAT SAT 10:30 The Unsent Letters of Erik Satie b036thyn (Listen) SAT Alistair McGowan travels to Paris on the trail of his SAT musical hero, the visionary Erik Satie - now most well-known SAT as the composer of the Gymnopedies. Satie was famously SAT eccentric - he replaced traditional musical directions like SAT 'ralentando' and 'fortissimo' with instructions to the SAT musician such as, 'While watching oneself approach' and SAT 'like a nightingale with a toothache' and in order to save SAT time deciding what to wear every day, he bought seven, SAT identical, yellow, corduroy suits - one for every day of the SAT week. SAT SAT Satie's radical new approach to music was initially SAT dismissed by the musical establishment, but he was to prove SAT a highly influential force in the new French music of SAT Debussy, Ravel and anticipated 20th century minimalism. SAT SAT As Alistair talks to Satie biographers and musicians, he SAT uncovers the story of Satie's one and only love affair, with SAT the artist Suzanne Valadon. Their affair lasted only six SAT months, but years later, after Satie's death, bundles of SAT unsent letters to Suzanne were discovered in Satie's SAT apartment. SAT SAT Featuring interviews with Robert Orledge, Ornella Volta and SAT Jean-Pierre Armengaud. SAT SAT And at 14.15 on Monday 15th July, you can hear Alistair play SAT Satie, in a Radio 4 Afternoon Drama, Three Pieces in the SAT Shape of a Pear, written by Alistair himself, and starring SAT Nathaniel Parker as Claude Debussy, Imogen Stubbs as Suzanne SAT Valadon and Kevin Eldon as the critic, Willy Gaulthier SAT Villars.

We talk to Simon Calder, Travel SAT Editor of the Independent newspaper about how to protect SAT yourself when booking online. SAT SAT Lose your job and the insurance company may well put up your SAT premiums for car and home insurance - even though you could SAT be driving a lot less and in the house a lot more. The SAT industry explains why. SAT SAT Lawyers acting for some of the investors in the suspended SAT investment scheme Arch Cru are planning legal action against SAT Capita, the firm that had responsibility for the management SAT of the fund, to try to get more than the £54m compensation SAT it has put up already. Up to 20,000 people who invested more SAT than £400 million have lost around half their money. And SAT four years after the investment was closed down most are SAT still waiting for adequate redress. SAT SAT Children learn how to manage money by watching and copying SAT their parents rather than through formal financial SAT education. That's the finding of research done by Cambridge SAT academics. We also hear from children in Uganda and speak to SAT Tracey Bleakley, Chief Executive of PFEG, the UK's personal SAT finance education group about news this week that personal SAT finance will be included in the school curriculum from 11 SAT years.

After assaulting SAT the train driver, the criminals stole over two and a half SAT million pounds, something in the region of £40 million in SAT today's money. SAT SAT The twists and turns of the case, and its main characters, SAT ensured that the robbery stayed in the public eye for the SAT decades that followed. SAT SAT There was the discovery of an abandoned hideout, the SAT high-profile captures, escapes from maximum security SAT prisons, bundles of cash left in phone boxes, and SAT extradition battles that went on for years. SAT SAT Gang members Bruce Reynolds, Buster Edwards and Ronnie Biggs SAT became celebrities.

SAT SAT 22:15 Moral Maze b036ksdg (Listen) SAT Mohammed Morsi's Muslim Brotherhood government in Egypt may SAT have only had a 51% majority in last year's election, but by SAT all accounts it was a fair a free election, and with such a SAT high turn-out it gave him the kind of democratic mandate SAT that many politicians in the West would envy. At the time it SAT was hailed as something of a triumph of democracy - the SAT people had spoken - a military dictator was overthrown in a SAT largely bloodless revolution and for the first time in that SAT country's history Egyptians had the opportunity to choose SAT their leaders. Well, the people have spoken again. They've SAT taken to the streets in their millions to vent SAT dissatisfaction with Mr Morsi's government; the army has SAT taken charge and Mohammed Morsi and many of his party are SAT now in prison. All this, we are told, is in the name of SAT democracy. Is it ever acceptable to support the military SAT overthrow of a democratically elected government? Is SAT democracy always an absolute good and no matter how SAT unpalatable, and to some the Islamist policies of the Muslim SAT Brotherhood were very unpalatable, we should always stand by SAT the result? Is democracy a morally unambiguous value? Should SAT we always be on the sides of the masses regardless of the SAT consequences to them and our national interests? Or is that SAT debating club naivety? Is democracy only ever the means to SAT an end and the only moral imperative for us in the West SAT should be to always safeguard our interests? Is the reality SAT that the last thing a volatile region like the Middle East SAT needs is a religiously fuelled government and in the wider SAT interest and our national interest, we should support the SAT coup. And however contradictory it sounds is it right to see SAT this coup as part of a democratic process and in this case SAT the ends, of establishing a stable democratic government, SAT justify the means? Or is that in fact thinly veiled SAT anti-Islamic prejudice that is the start of a slippery slope SAT that leads to Western interventionism? Combative, SAT provocative and engaging debate chaired by Michael Buerk SAT with Michael Portillo, Anne McElvoy, Kenan Malik and Matthew SAT Taylor.

SUN SUN 06:05 Something Understood b036tn9w (Listen) SUN Procrastination SUN SUN Have you ever been blighted by a looming deadline and stayed SUN up all night, wishing you'd started work just a bit earlier? SUN You might curse your hesitation in these situations. But, SUN Samira Ahmed asks: is procrastination always such a bad SUN thing? SUN SUN Most of us will have procrastinated at some point in our SUN lives. Maybe you can't start the first sentence of the novel SUN you've always want to write because you fear failure. Or SUN perhaps you're putting off telling your partner that your SUN relationship 'just isn't working anymore'. At worst SUN procrastination can be debilitating or prolong a hurtful SUN decision longer than necessary. But might it also be a SUN useful tool for artistic inspiration and a way to let things SUN happen in their own time? SUN SUN Our relationship with procrastination is a complex one. Many SUN of us are acutely aware that we are doing it, that it robs SUN us of the time to complete tasks to the best of our SUN potential, and yet we just can't stop it. Perhaps it is just SUN human nature? Procrastination has often been characterised SUN as a sin - leaving undone those things which we ought to SUN have done - perhaps suggesting that procrastination has been SUN a concern throughout history. SUN SUN And yet, there may be something to be said for carefully SUN considered delay. For anyone who's ever felt that sinking SUN feeling after posting something in haste on social media, SUN perhaps delaying action might have been prudent. We can SUN learn from history that sometimes resisting pressure to act SUN more quickly can prevent the direst of consequences. But SUN deliberate procrastination by those who have the power to SUN facilitate change or to maintain the status quo, even if it SUN robs the powerless of equal rights, might suggest that SUN procrastination is a luxury of those who have the time to SUN wait. SUN SUN The programme includes readings from Kurt Vonnegut, Martin SUN Luther King Jr., John Lanchester, and W.H. Auden, with music SUN by Sir Richard Rodney Bennett, Leonard Cohen, Karine SUN Polwart, and Yo La Tengo. SUN SUN Producer: Katherine Godfrey SUN A Whistledown production for BBC Radio 4. SUN Samira Ahmed blogs SUN SUN 06:35 On Your Farm b036tn9y (Listen) SUN Farming on an island comes with its own challenges, most of SUN them financial. For islands without an abattoir, there's the SUN cost of taking animals off for slaughter, while the need to SUN import feed and other supplies has an obvious impact on a SUN farm's profitability. SUN SUN On Mull, an island in the Inner Hebrides which enjoys a SUN booming tourist trade, things are a little different though. SUN On the ferry from Oban, Caz Graham first encounters SUN locally-produced lamb. Determined that some of the tourist SUN money should come their way, local farmers have forged links SUN with a company which supplies meat to the ferry operator, SUN meaning that visitors can get a taste of Argyll hill lamb SUN before they even set foot on Mull. SUN SUN Once on the island, Caz discovers that the slaughterhouse is SUN crucial to the farmers' success. An increasingly rare SUN facility on Hebridean islands, the abattoir on Mull is SUN proving so successful that it's even attracting business SUN from the mainland. For visitors, there's an obvious appeal SUN in eating food raised and slaughtered on the island, while SUN the farmers tell Caz that there's a reward - in both SUN financial and emotional terns - in seeing their produce SUN celebrated and enjoyed on the island where they live and SUN work.

SUN SUN Autistica SUN SUN One in a hundred people in the UK have autism, that’s SUN 600,000. It is a neuro-developmental disorder that affects SUN people’s communication and social abilities. In the most SUN severe cases, people with autism may never learn to speak, SUN and experience high levels of depression and anxiety. SUN Relationships, friendships and employment can be extremely SUN challenging. SUN SUN Autistica funds medical research to understand the causes of SUN autism, improve diagnosis, and develop new treatments and SUN interventions that will transform the lives of people with SUN autism. SUN SUN We work closely with the autism community to address the SUN issues that cause the greatest concern to them. Our aim is SUN to move pioneering research from bench to bedside so that SUN new discoveries can translate as quickly as possible into a SUN better experience for all those affected by the condition. SUN SUN With your support, we will fund research to find the very SUN first signs of autism in babies, so that support can be SUN given as early as possible, giving children the best chance SUN of developing language and social understanding. And we will SUN also launch brand new research into mental health and ageing SUN with autism, because autism is a lifelong condition, and SUN people deserve support across the life-span.

SUN SUN In Florence, in the late 1500s, townspeople played a form of SUN football that allowed them to wrestle, punch and immobilize SUN their opponents in any way they liked. Venice had a SUN spectacularly violent sport of bridge-fighting where SUN opposing teams "armed with sticks...dipped in boiling oil SUN beat the hell out of each other". SUN SUN Civic sporting therapy - past and present - has for SUN centuries, Sarah argues, "proved a creative alternative to SUN our recurring tendency to kill each other".

SUN SUN Crime fiction is Val's chosen genre and the millions of SUN novels she sells examine and dissect the darkest recesses of SUN human behaviour.

Denise explains why she felt it SUN was important to tell the story of a young teenage girl SUN groomed for sex and why she set part of the novel on the SUN night that Diana, Princess of Wales died. SUN SUN While going about the daily tasks of our jobs, many of us SUN feel that the japes, the wacky scenarios and the bizarre SUN workings of the place could often make a great plotline for SUN a novel. Well two new writers have done just that. Michael SUN Honig's novel Goldblatt's Descent is set in a London NHS SUN hospital and his acerbic registrar battles with the SUN idiosyncrasies of his colleagues and the system - so it's no SUN surprise to find he's a former senior registrar himself, and SUN serving police officer Lisa Cutts whose debut novel Never SUN Forget has as its heroine the determined Detective Constable SUN Nina Foster. So what's the appeal of writing about your work SUN and what insights do readers get into these high profile SUN public service occupations? SUN SUN On the 22nd of September 1943, a twenty nine year old SUN secretary called Pearl Witherington, AKA Agent Marie, was SUN parachuted into Occupied France. She joined a number of SUN civilians who volunteered as agents of the secret Special SUN Operations Executive, specialising in guerrilla warfare and SUN "the sabotage and subversion of the enemy." From resourceful SUN courier, she went on to command a troop of highly effective SUN French resistance fighters and ended up with a bounty of one SUN million francs on her head.

Tax Avoidance SUN SUN While the G8 summit of world leaders has agreed a global SUN deal to ensure big business pays its dues, concerns about SUN tax avoidance go wider. SUN SUN A group of MPs has just examined the case of the Cup Trust, SUN a charity which tried to claim £46 million in tax relief but SUN spent just £55,000 on good works. The Chair of the Public SUN Accounts Committee, Margaret Hodge, concluded the Trust's SUN purpose "was to avoid tax". SUN SUN And she said this wasn't an isolated case. The Committee SUN heard that HMRC investigates around 300 charities a year SUN over concerns about tax fraud. SUN SUN In this week's File on 4 Fran Abrams examines the blurred SUN lines around charities and tax. SUN SUN What happens when genuine charities find 'donations' are SUN designed so the donors can claim Gift Aid payments from the SUN tax man? And how easy is it to register a charity whose main SUN aim is actually tax avoidance? SUN SUN Is the 160 year-old Charity Commission up to the job of SUN policing 21st Century charities?

SUN Confined to hospital with a dilated, literally-big heart, SUN stuck on drugs and drips and forced to cope with curious SUN medical procedures and even curiouser fellow patients, will SUN he die, or will he be doomed to life in a mobility scooter SUN at home with his parents in Dudley? SUN SUN Or maybe he can pull through with the help of poetry, cod SUN philosophy, and friends - nihilistic Sophia, who tries to SUN cheer his spirits with books by Houellebecq and Lovecraft, SUN and his dour Welsh publisher / solicitor Jacob, who is in SUN charge of his will but might actually sell more books if he SUN dies. And will having a Big Heart shrink his romantic SUN possibilities? SUN SUN Half-way between a sitcom and real-life storytelling, and SUN based on Richard's Wellcome Trust supported solo show which SUN toured in 2012, each episode illuminates a different aspect SUN of the experience of illness and facing your own mortality SUN with a sense of humour.

After the interview SUN aired we received a deluge of complaints - more than about SUN the coverage of the death and funeral of Baroness Thatcher. SUN Listeners were "incandescent" with rage about both the SUN decision itself and the interview, which many felt offered SUN far from adequate answers. SUN SUN Given the weight of correspondence, this week Roger puts SUN your frustrations to Jeremy Howe, commissioning editor for SUN drama on Radio 4 and 4 Extra. SUN SUN And why has the BBC removed a free piece of technology, SUN called Radio Downloader, which allowed listeners to download SUN and keep BBC radio programmes?

Despite the recent announcement of further cuts in SUN spending, tax rises look difficult to avoid. SUN SUN Paul explores the reasons for this gap in the budget and SUN asks what taxes could help to fill it. With tax avoidance SUN and evasion now at the top of world leaders' agendas, he SUN asks if the increasingly tax-averse companies sector can be SUN made to pay more and how much the rich and wealthy could SUN contribute. He also considers the taxation of our houses and SUN pensions and whether more will be taken from them. SUN SUN Then he focuses on the three levies which contribute the SUN lion's share of government revenue - income tax, national SUN insurance and VAT - and, with politicians, economists and SUN tax experts, finds out how much we are all - young and old, SUN better and worse off - likely to pay. He also drops in on a SUN young family in Norfolk to discover what taxpaying voters SUN think of the choices and what they will be expected to pay. SUN SUN Among those taking part: Nigel Lawson (former Conservative SUN Chancellor of the Exchequer); Kitty Ussher (former Labour SUN Treasury minister); Bill Dodwell (head of tax policy at SUN Deloitte); Julian McCrae (former top Treasury official now SUN at the Institute for Government); Gavin Kelly (chief SUN executive of the Resolution Foundation who worked during the SUN Blair/Brown years in Downing Street and the Treasury); and SUN Malcolm Gammie QC (a leading tax lawyer).

MON Garden ponds are arguably the most diverse of all garden MON wildlife habitats, and Brett and Phil begin by watching pond MON skaters (the wolves of the pond) and whirligig beetles on MON the surface of the water. "They remind me of bumper cars at MON the fair" says Phil as whirligig beetles whizz about over MON the elastic surface film. These beetles are able to look MON down and up at the same time. Imagine if we could this! MON "What goes on in a Whirligig beetle's brain I just can't MON contemplate" laughs Phil. Surprisingly, below the surface, MON life is anything but quiet as water boatmen communicate with MON one another by stridulation - producing a remarkably loud MON tapping sound. There are also backswimmers (so called MON because they swim upside down), which can be identified MON explains Phil as "the ones that bite really painfully" so MON best left alone! Further below the surface, you might frogs MON (their loud purring courtship calls announcing their return MON to the pond after hibernation and the arrival of spring), MON and the terrors of the deep; the dragonfly nymphs. These are MON fearsome predatory larvae with needle-sharp pincer-like MON jaws, "jet propelled" and feed on tadpoles. These larvae are MON transformed into the beautiful flying adults, which are not MON uncommon; species like the Southern Hawker Dragonfly readily MON colonise small garden ponds and "they'll come and check you MON out. They're very curious insects, they hover round your MON head and come and look at you." Don't be alarmed they are MON completely harmless despite their old names such as 'Horse MON stinger' and 'Devil's darning needle'! MON MON PRODUCER: Sarah Blunt.

MON MON Starring Alistair McGowan as Erik Satie, Nathaniel Parker as MON Claude Debussy, Imogen Stubbs as Suzanne Valadon and MON Charlotte Page as Paulette Darty. MON MON Satie is now most famous for his delicate and dreamlike MON 'Gymnopedies', but he was a man ahead of his time - turning MON his back on the musical conventions of his day and composing MON spare, 'white' pieces with strange titles, such as 'Flabby MON Preludes for a Dog' and 'Three Pieces in the Shape of a MON Pear' MON MON But he was also a complex and solitary man. McGowan's drama MON looks at three key figures in Satie's life - his friend and MON rival, Claude Debussy; his first love, the artist Suzanne MON Valadon and the society soprano, Paulette Darty, for whom he MON nurtured a long, but undeclared, devotion. MON MON But despite the poignancy of Satie's romantic life, this is MON a fresh and funny portrayal of an engagingly eccentric MON figure - a man who saved time deciding what to wear by MON buying seven, identical, yellow, corduroy suits (one for MON every day of the week) and who, for a time, consumed only MON white foods in the hope of instilling that simplicity and MON purity into his own body and music.

TUE TUE Today the government and Gas extraction companies are taking TUE stock after the publication of a report by the British TUE Geological Survey of the potential of larger than expected TUE Shale Gas reserves in the Bowland Basin - an area covering TUE most of Lancashire and Yorkshire. TUE TUE IN the early 19th century, with the help of new mining TUE technology including steam powered machinery, it became TUE increasingly clear that the Yorkshire coalfield stretched TUE far further East than was first thought. Huge new seams were TUE being discovered, particularly in the Barnsley area, as TUE shafts were sunk in the area east of Wakefield, Rotherham TUE and Sheffield. TUE TUE Back then the new reserves created a series of challenges TUE and risks for the mining organisations wealthy enough to TUE take the risks. Subsidence and firedamp were a fact of TUE mining life. But in the space of half a century the TUE relatively limited Yorkshire field outstripped the rest of TUE the UK's coalmining production and in the process created TUE huge population centres in what had been sparsely populated TUE farming country. TUE TUE David Robottom, who represents potential Extraction TUE companies and Damian Kahya who has been a critic of the TUE so-called Fracking methods needed to extract Gas from Shale TUE deposits, are joined by mining historian Dr Peter Claughton TUE and Dr Nick Riley of the British Geological Survey to TUE explore what the Victorians did with their energy TUE discoveries and what action might be taken in a similar TUE geographical area today as we struggle to sustain our TUE mineral dependent economy.

TUE TUE The financial journalist describes how her background in TUE anthropology led her to predict the financial crisis in TUE 2008. TUE TUE "For my doctorate I spent a year in a remote mountainous TUE area of Tajikistan where I lived as a Tajik girl, wearing TUE the local Atlas robes, fetching water and firewood and TUE chasing goats," says Tett. She studied their rituals and TUE social networks and how they helped to maintain village TUE life. TUE TUE Later, she became a journalist for the Financial Times and TUE put her anthropology "into a deep, dark, mental drawer" and TUE almost forgot about it. "Having a PhD in economics or TUE astrophysics gave you credibility. Knowing about Tajik TUE wedding rituals did not!" TUE TUE She describes how one day, years later, she suddenly stopped TUE and wondered: "what would happen if I was to look at the TUE world of finance and business like an anthropologist peering TUE at my Tajik village?". TUE TUE Tett explains how this set her journalism on a new path, a TUE path that was to help her predict the economic turmoil of TUE 2008. TUE TUE Producer: Adele Armstrong.

TUE TUE 11:30 Soul Music b036v094 (Listen) TUE Series 16, Make Me a Channel of Your Peace TUE TUE The hymn 'Make Me a Channel of Your Peace' found its way TUE into weddings, funerals and school assemblies and in this TUE week's 'Soul Music' we hear how it has also embedded itself TUE into the hearts of peace campaigners, charity workers and TUE reformed alcoholics. TUE TUE The simplicity of this hymn often belies the challenges at TUE its heart. Its lyrics call for unconditional love and TUE forgiveness in the toughest situations. The words are based TUE on a poem which has often been attributed to St Francis of TUE Assisi. However, Franciscan Historian, Dr Christian Renoux, TUE suggests it was most likely to have been written by an TUE anonymous French noble women. TUE TUE The poem travelled across the globe with translations TUE published during the first and second world wars, TUE subsequently bringing inspiration to public figures ranging TUE from Mother Theresa to President Roosevelt. TUE TUE In 1967 it caught the eye of South African born musician and TUE 'yogi' Sebastian Temple who put these words to its most TUE famous musical arrangement. It's Sebastian's version that TUE was played at Princess Diana's funeral and that has also TUE touched the hearts of millions worldwide. TUE TUE Mathew Neville of children's charity 'World Vision' recalls TUE his encounter with this hymn in the Democratic Republic of TUE Congo, whilst closer to home Wendy and Colin Parry share TUE their memories of this music and the role it played in TUE remembering their son Tim, who was killed in the 1993 TUE Warrington Bombings. TUE TUE In Minnesota former lawyer Mike Donohue reflects on how this TUE hymn has guided him on a journey through alcohol abuse and TUE dementia and Sarah Hershberg remembers her good friend TUE Sebastian Temple, who first played this simple hymn in her TUE front room before it went on to travel the world.

TUE TUE Our thoughts, John Milton said, are a kingdom of infinite TUE space and they might take us anywhere -whether our subject TUE is writ large, like the behaviours of public figures or the TUE contradictions of politics, or located in the minutiae of TUE everyday life.

Traveling to WED Jerusalem, he gains rare access to one of the world leading WED ultra-orthodox yeshivas - the Mir. Here he finds young men WED who will study these ancient Hebrew and Aramaic texts, full WED time, for anything up to 30 or 40 years. They explain how WED arguing and debate are the ways to understand the ancient WED wisdom of the rabbis that have contributed to the Talmud WED though the ages and still telling you everything you need to WED know to be a Jew today. The Talmud is not about the arrival WED but the journey and it's less about about finding answers WED than discovering what the questions are. WED WED Tracing the history of the Talmud, Rabbi Naftali heads to WED the Galilee to the archaeological site of Beit She'arim, the WED remains of an ancient city, where shortly after the WED destruction of the 2nd Temple, the first words of this book WED were written down. He discovers that the Talmud was an WED audacious project defying one of the key Jewish laws which WED forbade writing down the Oral Laws of Moses. Its creation WED was deemed necessary in order to preserve Jewish culture and WED practice which, at this time, was facing extinction. WED WED In the course of this programme, Rabbi Naftali meets some of WED the greatest Jewish minds and scholars in the world today: WED Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz, described by Time Magazine as a 'one WED in a millennium scholar', who has published his own edition WED of the Talmud to Gila Fine - one of the growing number of WED female orthodox academics working with the Talmud. WED WED The programme ends with a moving story from leading Talmudic WED scholar and holocaust survivor, David Weiss Halivni, who WED explains how the Talmud sustained him in the concentration WED camps.

WED WED From 1938 to 1968, Francis Durbridge's incomparably suave WED amateur detective Paul Temple and his glamorous wife Steve WED solved case after baffling case in one of BBC radio's most WED popular series. Sadly, only half of Temple's adventures WED survive in the archives. WED WED In 2006 BBC Radio 4 brought one of the lost serials back to WED life with Crawford Logan and Gerda Stevenson as Paul and WED Steve. Using the original scripts and incidental music, and WED recorded using vintage microphones and sound effects, the WED production of Paul Temple and the Sullivan Mystery aimed to WED sound as much as possible like the 1947 original might have WED done if its recording had survived. The serial proved so WED popular that it was soon followed by three more revivals, WED Paul Temple and the Madison Mystery, Paul Temple and Steve, WED and A Case for Paul Temple. WED WED Now, from 1946, it's the turn of Paul Temple and the Gregory WED Affair, in which Paul and Steve go on the trail of the WED mysterious and murderous Mr Gregory. WED WED Episode 3: The Madrid WED WED Steve takes an eventful taxi ride to a louche Mayfair night WED club. WED WED Producer Patrick Rayner WED WED Francis Durbridge, the creator of Paul Temple, was born in WED Hull in 1912 and died in 1998.

Many contractors now rely on labour WED agencies for manpower, and railway workers reveal their WED concerns at the short notice of shifts they often receive WED and the long distances they sometimes travel before starting WED work. They describe how they are expected to work without WED rest breaks, ignore rules on shift length, and why they do WED not report safety incidents for fear of being blacklisted. WED John meets the mother of Scott Dobson, a 26 year old railway WED worker who was killed in an accident near Saxilby in WED December 2012.

THU THU 11:30 Absinthe Makes the Art Grow Fonder b036w39g (Listen) THU The novelist and poet Michèle Roberts presents a history of THU absinthe, and its influence on art and writing. THU THU Toulouse-Lautrec, Verlaine, Van Gogh, Baudelaire, Gauguin , THU Oscar Wilde and Hemingway - all are united by their love of THU absinthe. In the late C19th it became so popular that 5pm, THU when absinthe was served, became known as 'the Green Hour'. THU THU Artists celebrated this bitter-sweet, aperitif. The way it THU changes from clear green to milky white with the addition of THU water is an alcoholic metaphor for inspiration and artistic THU transformation. But absinthe is very strong, and was thought THU to be hallucinogenic. THU THU Artists' subjects and modes of expression changed radically THU in the later C19th. Artists and writers seemed to pursue THU lives of reckless extremity. Michèle investigates how all THU this became associated with absinthe. A symbol of the THU demi-monde, 'the green fairy' was demonised and banned in THU much of Europe (including in France), and America. THU THU Michèle Roberts tells absinthe's story, from its origins, THU how troops returning from the tropics, where it was used as THU an anti-malarial, brought the taste for it home; how it THU permeated French society - even the urban poor could afford THU absinthe. THU THU She explores absinthe's adoption by artists. At first an aid THU to inspiration, did it lead to fondness, in the THU Shakespearian sense of foolishness? Did absinthe make the THU art grow fonder? In Paris and London she learns the rituals THU of its consumption and the myths surrounding the spirit; its THU rise, decline and fall - and recent resurgence - there are THU 200 brands available these days. And, under its influence THU she writes a poem. The editor of Poetry Review will judge if THU absinthe inspires or wrecks her work. THU THU Producer: Julian May.

In 1944 the two men came THU together to work on a screen adaptation of James M Cain's THU novel Double Indemnity. Billy Wilder is a 36 year old German THU Jewish émigré just making his name as a director and Raymond THU Chandler is a reformed alcoholic with a developing THU reputation as a novelist but absolutely no experience of THU writing for movies. The play follows their famously THU difficult collaboration. THU Directed by Claire Grove THU THU Billy Wilder and Raymond Chandler are legendary. The THU English-educated, middle-aged , would-be intellectual versus THU the ambitious young German émigré. Paramount Studios put THU Raymond Chandler and Billy Wilder together because none of THU the big names would touch James M Cain's novel. With its THU adulterous lovers, and a crime that could be copied, it was THU judged too controversial to adapt because of the censorious THU Production Code guidelines. Chandler and Wilder famously THU hated each other but in a space of some four months locked THU in an office together they created an outstanding screenplay THU for a ground-breaking classic film . THU THU Credits THU Writer: Stephen Wyatt THU Raymond Chandler: Patrick Stewart THU Billy Wilder: Adrian Scarborough THU Director: Claire Grove THU THU 15:00 Open Country b036w39q (Listen) THU Herriot Country THU THU James Herriot's books about life as a country vet in the THU 1970s sold 60 million copies worldwide. Later many of the THU stories were made into feature films and a very popular TV THU series, 'All Creatures Great and Small'. Herriot's real name THU was James 'Alf' White, and he was known as 'Alf' by local THU people. He practiced as a vet in Thirsk, a small market town THU just a few miles from the North York Moors, as did his son, THU Jim Wight. Felicity Evans visits 'Herriot Country' to meet THU Jim Wight and talk about his father, the changes there have THU been in veterinary practice since the 1940s and the legacy THU 'James Herriot' left both the town and the local farming THU community. THU THU Jim Wight takes Felicity to the old surgery in 23, Kirkgate, THU Thirsk where Alf served the local community as a vet, THU initially working with Donald Sinclair, who became Siegfried THU Farnon in the books. Jim lived here until he was ten and THU later when he followed his father into the practice, it was THU also his place of work. Now it's 'The World of James Herriot THU Museum', where the rooms are lovingly preserved and visitors THU can see the old dispensary and the veterinary instruments THU used in the post war era. The visit brings back many THU memories for Jim including sharing some of the humorous THU stories that made his father's books so famous. THU THU The farming industry has also changed since Alf White's time THU and Felicity visits John Bowes and his son Jonathan, one of THU the few remaining dairy farmers now left in the area who THU remember Alf White's visits. She also meets the Town's THU Mayor, Janet Watson who talks of the 'Herriot effect' on THU business in the town and proudly shows her the newly laid THU cobblestones in the Market Square and the restored town THU clock. THU THU Felicity ends her visit to Thirsk by observing a veterinary THU consultation at the Skeldale Veterinary practice. Peter THU Wright talks about the loss of many family run farms who THU kept livestock which has given way to a veterinary practice THU that is now dominated by small animals. Happily both Peter THU and Jim Wight believe that the changes, particularly in THU disease control, are very much for the better. THU THU Producer: Sarah Pitt.

FRI FRI Each story features a deaf central character, and has a FRI Mexican setting: FRI "He felt the beat of his own heart in his chest and it FRI seemed to play into the rhythm of the water in front of him. FRI That heartbeat, and the faint electrical current that fuzzed FRI steadily beneath his eyes, making him feel slightly queasy; FRI that was the soundtrack of Mexico for him." FRI FRI Louise Stern grew up in Fremont, California, and is the FRI fourth generation of her family to be born deaf. She says, FRI "I have always felt that Mexico is a country where words are FRI flesh ... People there, hearing or deaf, are very FRI comfortable with communicating via gestures. Mexico is the FRI place where I feel the least deaf. Although the incidence of FRI deafness is more or less the same in most of Mexico as in FRI the rest of the world (less than one percent), there is a FRI village in Yucatan state in Mexico where everyone uses sign FRI language as a matter of fact, because there is a genetic FRI quirk that means that more people than usual are deaf. This FRI village is not the setting of these stories written for the FRI BBC, but time spent there has influenced the stories." FRI FRI Programme 2: FRI Mudo can't hear the talk of the crew on the fishing boat, FRI but he's with them to perform one particular task. FRI FRI Louise Stern now lives and works in London as an artist and FRI writer. Chattering, her first collection of short stories, FRI was published in 2010.
