Caz Graham makes her selection of highlights from the past seven days of Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio.
Power is one of the threads running through the selection of radio in Caz Graham's pick of the week, what it is and what it does to people. Like how super power rivalry in the Cold War led to Valentina Tereshkova blasting into orbit as the first woman in space, how Maggie Thatcher became an unlikely role model for a scrap of a lad in Ravenscraig, and the battle between censors and artists in Burma.
There's Dr Feelgood guitarist Wilco Johnson, Cerys Mathews in fine voice, and what they don't tell you in ante-natal classes.
