Peter's had enough and has sought out the last summer rays as the British summertime comes to an end, accompanied by a trusty battery-operated radio (and the BBC Sounds app) to see him through. The battery-operated radio would probably do him well going by the docudrama Threads, which celebrates its 40th anniversary on Sunday - we hear the responses from the acclaimed horror's first ever preview in Sheffield, which looked at the reality of the nuclear threat posed to Britain. Plus, given our seaside location, it seems apt that we learn about the amazing story of a dolphin tamer turned dolphin liberator in Indonesia. And Joanne McNally's gone all super sleuth on us, pursuing the truth with no agenda by bashing a beloved toy from a 1990s craze with a hammer. Presenter: Peter Curran Producer: Anthony McKee Production Co-ordinator: Jack Ferrie With thanks to the staff at Brighton Palace Pier. A BBC Audio Northern Ireland production for BBC Radio 4.
