On this week’s show, Sarah, in light of the Jason Arday case, will be talking about the nature of so-called witch hunts, while Peter will be ruminating on Clacton’s favourite son and bin beating by-election winner, Nigel Farage.
And we’ll be opening our mailbag to discuss regrets (Sarah’s had a few), a damn good childhood read or two, their respective lives as young journalists – there was a lot more drinking going on – and how does Peter manage to be so curmudgeonly and pleasant simultaneously?
On our reading, listening and watch list this week:
· Advise and Consent – Allen Drury
· The Eagle of the Ninth – Rosemary Sutcliff
· The Faraway Tree – Enid Blyton
· The Wind In The Willows – Kenneth Grahame
· Mr Benn – Dir: Pat Kirby
