Listener Jackie Winter got in touch with us about her experience clocking up more than 100,000 miles over her 40 years as a tandem rider. And all that despite not being able to ride a pedal cycle! She joins us to tell us about her life as a 'stoker'.
Sean Myatt is a puppeteer and academic who teaches puppetry at Nottingham Trent University. He will join us to talk about object theatre, scenography, being a puppet captain at the Olympics opening ceremony and working with Kate Bush.
Peter Marren is a butterfly obsessive. A repentant child collector and lifelong fan, he muses on our relationship with this most beautiful of insects. How have they been regarded over the years? And why are they so important to us?
