Pick of the Week

Available for over a year

This week, we're harking back to the little-known history of Bowie crossing Checkpoint Charlie in a divided Berlin back in the 1970s. Plus, we hear how dogs are learning new tricks like catching some tubular action on the waves. And while reading this, you're probably hearing it being narrated by a little voice in your head. You are, aren't you? CrowdScience's Caroline Steel gets to the bottom of this phenomenon, as she goes head-to-head with a robot... that talks to itself. Presenter: Steven Rainey Producer: Anthony McKee Production Co-ordinator: Jack Ferrie A BBC Audio Northern Ireland production for BBC Radio 4.
