The theme for today's programme is escape, and Edi Stark and guests bring their recommendations for getting away from it all, literally and metaphorically.

Comedian Craig Hill explains why he loves losing himself in the sumptuous world of The Crown, Netflix's hit drama about the reign of Queen Elizabeth II. Travel writer Robin McKelvie reveals the places he most likes escaping to... and the answer might surprise you. And bookshop owner Marie Moser picks Moon Dust by Andrew Smith, a book that tells the story of the most dramatic of all escapes from the everyday: the account of every man who has walked on the moon.

Plus Pete Irvine, author of guidebook Scotland the Best, takes Edi to one of his favourite places of escape; and today's archive pick is an account of one man's very lucky escape, with a highlight from an interview with climber Joe Simpson.
