"Pick of the Week"
Radio 4's "Pick of the Week" highlights the best programmes on BBC Radio, in the opinion of the Pick of the Week production team and listeners who call or email the programme.
We have completed 61 commissions (a total of 100 programmes) in the 5 years since our first "Pennine Production" was broadcast in July 2001. In that time the following 23 programmes have featured on "Pick of the Week":
Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
Thomas Midgley - a Cautionary Tale
Get Rid of that Constable, I want a Hockney
The First Cuckoo and the Last Swallow
The Englishman who Ran across America
Three Nights Drunk and the Market Tup
Prehistoric Footprints Under the Sand
The Art and Science of the Piano
"Sunday Best" is Radio 4's primetime slot on Sunday lunchtime for its "most acclaimed features and documentaries".
Clare Jenkins' programme "The Shearing Shore"
was selected for the "Sunday Best" slot on 25th May 2003 at 1:30pm
An appearance on the Feedback programme is usually bad news for a producer, but occasionally there are bouquets as well
Voicing the Piano got just such an endorsement from a listener on the 3rd October edition of Feedback: "Sometimes on Radio 4 there is something perfect, like a swan gliding on a stream. You couldn't change anything to make it better. Such was Voicing the Piano"
