SeriesWhen Banksy Comes to Town

3. Off the Wall

The Banksy Story

Available for over a year

Roll-up! Roll-up! The Banksy circus is coming to town... What happens when Banksy does one of his naughty drawings on the wall of your house? For Season 2 of The Banksy Story, super-fan James Peak investigates (even though he isn't an art critic, or a journalist). In this episode, both Banksys come off the wall so they can be preserved for posterity and perhaps sold on. But what do the legions of local people and art-fans think about this? Also, Steph and James go on the hunt for Banksy's missing frying-pan. Written, Produced & Presented by James Peak Voices: Keith Wickham & Harriet Carmichael Production Support: George Crowe Music: Alcatraz Swim Team & Lilium Street Art Consultancy and Investigative Support: Steph Warren Series Mixing: Neil Churchill Executive Producer: Philip Abrams Commissioner: Dan Clarke With special thanks to Hadrian Briggs, Pete Chinn, Rob Shiret, Rosie Bauer, Tracy Williams, Andy Voss & Noel Lewis An Essential Radio production for BBC Radio 4
