Pick of the Week

Available for over a year

This week, we're finding ourselves in flux via audio, between broken stones and baffling markets, crisps on the radio to the crinkle of crisp packets bringing joy to Paul Farley and his newly fitted hearing aids. Plus, we hear about the prison farm helping inmates come closer to freedom, as well as the power of the sitar being unleashed on pop music with George Harrison, and a little help from a friend. Presenter: Chris Power Producer: Anthony McKee Production Coordinators: Caoilfhinn McFadden and Caroline Peddle A BBC Audio Northern Ireland production for BBC Radio 4.
