Len Pennie

This week, Len's walking down the Royal Mile to bring us some splendid snippets from the Edinburgh Festivals via BBC radio, including marriage counselling and musical comedy from Loose Ends, and the actor Brian Cox on Front Row. Plus, perhaps not a surprise, but there’s plenty of poetry – from the female lyricists of Ancient Greece to post-partum poetics on Woman’s Hour. However, those keen for a verse or two, put your notebooks and quills away; comedian Ken Cheng is back to school us all, and is seeing red when it comes to the art form.
