À propos de cet audio

On this week’s episode, Peter and Sarah ask why crazed ideologies seem to have taken root at the heart of both the BBC and the publishing world as we examine the corporation’s latest missteps and the scandalous case of author Kate Clanchy’s cancellation.


Plus, being berated on social media over shots of your bookshelf, trying to take the train to Glasgow on a Sunday (a schoolgirl error) and why novels need more vivid descriptions of food and drink.


On our reading and watch list this week:


· Some Kids I Taught and What They Taught Me – Kate Clanchy

· The War Game – Dir: Peter Watkins

· Russia Under the Bolshevik Regime 1919-1924 – Richard Pipes

· The Death Of Faith – Donna Leon
