Simon Parkes makes his selection from the past seven days of Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio
This week's Pick of the Week hasn't been very straight-forward: things haven't been quite what they seem. There have been plots, subversions and things masquerading as other things. Who would've guessed it?
Gordon Corera exposes a Czech spy ring meant to implicate former prime minister Edward Heath, only to learn it probably was an attempt to discredit him by members of his own party. A.S. Byatt feels strange inexplicable forces in her own home and then there's the man exploring a cave system in Iceland - caves shaped by nature but making some very other-worldly noises. What can all these contradictions mean?
Hopefully, Simon Parkes will be providing some answers to these strange phenomenon in this week's Pick of the Week.
