VYS0046 | Ding Dong Merrily On High Strangeness - Vayse to Face to Face with Stephanie Quick and AP Strange: Christmas 2024 - Show Notes Ho, ho, holy shit that's another year gone and Christmas is here again! To mark the ever-increasing speed at which the years fly past in a blur of spiralling anxiety and gathering doom, Hine and Buckley invite two of the nicest, wisest and funniest people in Weirdosphere, Stephanie Quick and AP Strange, to help them celebrate away the winter blues. Drawing on the British tradition of telling ghost stories at Christmas, Hine, Buckley, Strange and Quick (also the title of the upcoming Vayse autobiography) work their way around the cardinal points, each telling a ghost story from the place in which they were born: the North and South of England and the East Coast and West Coast of the US. There are tales of a murderous jester who stalks the corridors of a Cumbrian castle to this day; a red haired woman who haunting a pirate-built cottage in New England; a missing bride at a Christmas wedding in a very haunted stately home in Hampshire; and a revolutionary Californian abolitionist who still throws nuts from trees over 120 years after her death... and they discuss three lesser known British winter traditions: Raymond Briggs' Snowman, ignoring Thanksgiving and moaning about the weather... (recorded 8 December 2024) Thanks to AP and Steph for preparing the stories and thanks to Keith for another year of show notes - follow the man on Blue Sky: @peakflow.bsky.social.

L'un des principaux avantages de l'automne résident dans la possibilité de passer des week-ends – idéalement pluvieux – à regarder des séries confortement installé sur son canapé ! Mais parmi les nouveautés attendues au mois de novembre, quelles sont celles à ne pas rater ? Voici un guide non exhaustif des fictions à suivre absolument. Les nouvelles séries Chocolat Amer - 3 novembre Produite par Salma Hayek, Chocolat Amer est une sorte de Roméo et Juliette version mexicaine. Tita et Pedro sont, ici, deux amants qui ne peuvent vivre leur amour sereinement à cause de lourdes traditions familiales. Une série en 6 épisodes proposée sur Max qui mélange réalisme magique et romance dramatique sur fond de cuisine traditionnelle ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NeVLROw2SEo Citadel : Honey Bunny – 7 novembre Citadel : Honey Bunny est un nouveau spin-off de la série originelle américaine Citadelle, produite par les frères Russo. Une déclinaison indienne, à voir sur Prime Video, qui voit Honey, une actrice et Bunny, un cascadeur, des amoureux séparés, contraints d'unir leurs forces pour protéger leur fille, Nadia. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fp4TCAJDtyI La Cage – 8 novembre Avec La Cage, Netflix va distribuer une dose massive de testostérone ! Melvin Boomer interprète un jeune combattant de MMA qu'une victoire inopinée va pousser sur le devant de la scène. Créée par Franck Gastambide, la fiction met en scène de nombreuses légendes du MMA comme Jon Jones ou Georges Saint-Pierre. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAtizowq4x4 Cat's Eyes – 11 novembre Attention, le 11 novembre, préparez-vous à chanter « Filles d'aujourd'hui, enfants de la forme » ! Un générique culte pour une fiction animée qui ne l'est pas moins : Cat's Eyes ! Et TF1 a eu la bonne idée de l'adapter en série télé en faisant appel à trois comédiennes de talent pour incarner les trois sœurs Chamade : Camille Lou interprète Tamara, Constance Labbé joue Sylia et Claire Romain prête ses traits à Alexia. Présentée en avant-première au Festival de la Rochelle 2024, Cat's Eyes est une fiction déclinée en 8 épisodes de 52 minutes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLEHd1lub9M Three Pines – 12 novembre Armand Gamache est un brillant inspecteur, héros d'une saga littéraire imaginée par Louise Penny. Dans Three Pines, adaptation télé de ces romans à voir sur Polar+, il est incarné par Alfred Molina et au cours de cette mini-série de 8 épisodes, le policier au sens de l'observation aigu va enquêter dans un petit village québécois bien moins paisible qu'il n'y paraît. Grotesquerie – 13 novembre Nouvelle série de Ryan Murphy, Grotesquerie reprend les ingrédients qui ont fait le succès de celui qui a commencé à la télé américaine avec Popular : du mystère, de l'horreur et une dose de surnaturel. Lois Tryon (Niecy Nash-Betts) est une détective qui enquête sur une série de crimes qui va complètement la faire perdre pied. Désemparée, elle va se tourner vers Sœur Megan (Micaela Diamond) une religieuse journaliste au passé difficile. Grotesquerie sera non seulement une série à suivre sur Disney+ mais aussi un événement « people » puisqu'elle marquera les débuts en tant qu'acteur de Travis Kelce, footballeur américain, compagnon de Taylor Swift. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=daV1NI7hxY0 The Chef – 14 novembre Huit mois après les événements du film – qui se présentait comme un long plan-séquence d'1h30 - Carly (Vinette Robinson) a pris les rênes du restaurant, le Point North, en emportant avec elle, une bonne partie de la brigade de Jones & Sons. Mais dans cette suite télévisée, la jeune cheffe doit relever un défi de taille : imposer son style dans un paysage gastronomique londonien ultra-concurrentiel. Nul doute qu'avec ses quatre épisodes de 52 minutes à découvrir sur Canal+, The Chef, la série, reprenne le rythme endiablé du film. Cross – 14 novembre Brillant détective, psychologue fasciné par les criminels, père de famille dévoué et jeune veuf souffrant toujours de la disparition de sa femme, Alex Cross (Aldis Hodge) est un héros multidimensionnel, créé à l'origine par l'auteur américain James Patterson, qui va se heurter à un tueur en série machiavélique. Avant la diffusion des 8 épisodes de la première saison de Cross sur Prime Video, une seconde a d'ores et déjà été commandée. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOupIB773tI La mesiás – 15 novembre Dans cette série espagnole, un frère et une sœur se retrouvent confrontés à leur enfance marquée par l'emprise de leur mère, catholique fanatique. Avec La mesias sur arte.tv, les réalisateurs Javier Ambrossi et Javier Calvo, les "Javis", nous plongent dans un univers à la fois kitsch et sombre, où splendeur et mystère se côtoient. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQKEnY_KsrQ Landman – 18 novembre Billy Bob Thornton, Jon Hamm et Demi Moore sont au casting de la nouvelle série créée par Taylor Sheridan à voir sur Paramount+.

Dune : Prophecy se concentre sur les deux sœurs Valya (Emily Watson) et Tula Harkonnen (Olivia Williams) à la genèse de cette organisation, prête à tout pour défendre l'humanité. Une série événement, à retrouver sur Max, qui s'inscrit comme une prequel du premier film Dune, dont l'action se déroule 10 000 ans avant les faits décrits dans le long-métrage de Denis Villeneuve. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzVHWNosS2o L'ombre d'un fils – 18 novembre L'ombre d'un fils est un thriller psychologique intense adapté du best-seller de Karen Perry à suivre sur france.tv. Après la disparition de leur fils au Maroc, Harry (Colin Morgan) et Robin (Toni O'Rourke) sont hantés par l'espoir de le retrouver. Lorsque Harry croit l'apercevoir dans la foule, il se lance corps et âme dans une quête désespérée qui va révéler une vérité inattendue. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=npN3-qRh6bM Le Code du tueur – 21 novembre Angleterre, années 1980.

Inspiré de faits réels, Le Code du tueur, mini-série à retrouver sur arte, retrace l'histoire de la toute première utilisation de l'empreinte génétique pour résoudre une affaire criminelle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qtcpByV4nk Cruel Intentions – 21 novembre Adaptation télé du film éponyme qui a profondément marqué les années 90 pour son côté sulfureux, Cruel Intentions, la série à voir sur Prime Video, place sa narration dans une université huppée de Washington à l'époque actuelle. Caroline Merteuil (Sarah Catherine Hook) et Lucien Valmont (Zac Burgess) sont des demi-frères à la relation tendancieuse. Lorsqu'un bizutage tourne mal, Caroline va demander à Lucien de séduire la douce et pieuse fille du vice-président de l'école, Annie Hargrove (Savannah Lee Smith), afin de maintenir leur statut. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqehRM8-B3o The Madness – 28 novembre Muncie Daniels (Colman Domingo), un expert des médias, doit laver son nom après avoir découvert un meurtre dans une forêt.

These protected areas serve as sanctuaries for diverse ecosystems, including sponge reefs, coral reefs, seagrass beds, and mangrove areas. By establishing boundaries and enforcing regulations, MPAs help prevent destructive practices that can harm these sensitive habitats. For example, sponge reefs, crucial marine ecosystems that provide habitat for numerous species, are particularly vulnerable to fishing activities that can damage or destroy these unique structures. Coral reefs, often referred to as the "rainforests of the sea," are also at risk from destructive fishing practices like trawling, which can devastate these intricate and biodiverse ecosystems. Seagrass beds and mangrove areas, vital for coastal protection and as nursery grounds for marine species, are similarly protected within MPAs to prevent damage from activities like fishing and coastal development. The importance of MPAs in preserving these critical habitats is highlighted in the episode, emphasizing the need for effective management and enforcement to ensure their conservation. Despite challenges posed by the lack of physical boundaries in MPAs, efforts to mitigate threats such as sewage pollution and nutrient runoff are crucial for maintaining the health and integrity of these marine ecosystems. By addressing these issues and investing in sustainable practices, we can continue to protect and preserve the invaluable habitats within Marine Protected Areas. The issue of sewage discharges into marine protected areas in the UK has become a significant concern, as discussed in the podcast episode. Over 100,000 hours of sewage have been released into waterways, impacting the health of these vital ecosystems. Marine protected areas are designated to safeguard habitats such as sponge reefs, coral reefs, seagrass beds, and mangrove areas from harmful activities like fishing and trawling. However, the lack of physical boundaries in these protected areas allows pollutants like sewage, nutrients, and sediment to seep in, compromising water quality and ecosystem health. The article discussed in the episode revealed alarming statistics of sewage discharges in various marine special areas of conservation in the UK. Locations such as the Humber Estuary, Solent Maritime, Plymouth Sound, Severn Estuary, and Morecambe Bay have experienced sewage spills for extended periods, with some areas recording over 10,000 hours of discharge. The Solent Maritime area, for instance, endured 18,000 hours of sewage spillage, posing a threat to rare sponges and reefs in the region. Efforts to address this issue include investments by wastewater service providers to upgrade networks and reduce storm overflows. For example, the company responsible for wastewater services in the southern region of the UK plans to invest billions to improve its network and minimize environmental damage. However, the scale of the problem necessitates continuous investment and proactive measures to prevent sewage spills and protect marine ecosystems. The episode emphasized the importance of government intervention and public engagement in addressing sewage discharges into marine protected areas. With the recent change in government leadership in the UK, there is an opportunity for citizens to advocate for stricter regulations, increased investments in sewage treatment facilities, and better management practices to safeguard water quality and marine biodiversity. By holding the government accountable and prioritizing environmental protection, communities can work towards ensuring the long-term health and sustainability of marine ecosystems in the UK. Investment and political buy-in are essential components in the effort to upgrade sewage treatment facilities and prevent sewage spills into waterways. The episode highlights the alarming issue of sewage discharges in marine protected areas in the UK, with over 100,000 hours of sewage being released directly into these sensitive ecosystems. This poses a significant threat to the environment, including rare sponges and reefs, as well as human health. The episode emphasizes the need for continuous investment in wastewater treatment infrastructure to address the growing population and ensure the proper treatment of sewage before it is discharged back into water bodies. Upgrading sewage treatment works and reducing storm overflows require substantial financial resources, with one company in the UK planning to invest billions of pounds between 2020 and 2030 for these purposes. Moreover, political buy-in is crucial to drive these investments and ensure that regulations are enforced to maintain the ecological health of waterways. The episode discusses the importance of government support in addressing sewage spills and improving wastewater management practices. It highlights the role of environmental organizations and the public in holding governments accountable for protecting water quality and ecosystems. In conclusion, the episode underscores the interconnectedness of the economy and the environment, emphasizing that neglecting sewage treatment infrastructure can lead to increased costs and environmental degradation. By advocating for investment in sewage treatment facilities and securing political commitment to environmental protection, communities can work towards safeguarding clean water for both the environment and human well-being.
...in which, guest presenting for Mark and Dave, Radio 4's Caz Graham dons her boots for a day on the farm with organic dairy farmer, Chair of the Nature Friendly Farming Network and one of Cumbria's farming heroes, James Robinson. In a wide-ranging conversation with fifth-generation farmer 'James from Strickley' – in the shadow of The Helm – Caz and James delve deep into the world of regenerative farming, talk new life in a rewiggled Saint Sunday's Beck and discuss the beauty, utlity and nature benefits – 98 bird species! – of James' beloved laid hedges, as articulated by visting poet and beatboxer Testament. Looking back at old farm diaries, Caz is wowed by historic entries that juxtapose the whitewashing of cattle shippons with a collapsing world order. Surveying a farmed landscape with views to Morecambe Bay, James reflects on the John Marsden adage that you should 'Live as though you'll die tomorrow, but farm as though you'll live forever', and – following an invite to discuss farming at Number 10 – calls for ministers to engage in joined-up thinking that aligns farming and food production with health, access to the countryside, education and social care.

Farming leaders in Wales have warned of "huge unrest" over planned Welsh government reforms to farm support payments, claiming mass protests are now "more or less inevitable". The Welsh government has urged farmers to participate in a consultation on their plans - which would require farms to have 10% tree cover and manage a further 10% of their land as wildlife habitat in order to access funding in future. Scotland's farmers will continue receiving most of their existing subsidies for growing food. The Scottish First Minister Humuza Yousaf has announced that 70% of future support in Scotland will be direct payments. This is the Scottish post-Brexit system which will replace the EU's Common Agricultural Policy and is in marked contrast to the new systems being introduced in England and Wales where the vast majority of public money will be paid only for environmental work, and direct payments are phased out. It's 20 years since the Morecambe Bay cockling disaster. 23 people lost their lives after getting cut off by the Bay's notoriously fast flowing tide while gathering cockles. Those who drowned were Chinese Migrants, illegally smuggled into the country and were working as forced labour for criminal gangmasters. The tragedy paved the way for the creation of the Gangmasters Licensing Authority in 2005 and to this day, anyone supplying workers into the shellfish sector, and into agriculture and horticulture, requires a licence with what is now the GLAA.We visit Glynhynod Farm, which means "Remarkable Valley" in Welsh - a family business making Caerphilly and Gouda and distilling Welsh whisky.

This week marks 20 years since the Morecambe Bay cockling disaster. 23 Chinese migrants lost their lives after getting cut off by the Bay's notoriously fast flowing tide while gathering cockles. Those who drowned were found to have been illegally smuggled into the country and were working as forced labour for criminal gangmasters. The tragedy paved the way for the creation of the Gangmasters Licensing Authority in 2005 and to this day, anyone supplying workers into the shellfish sector, and into agriculture and horticulture, requires a licence with what is now the GLAA, the Gangmasters and Labour Abuse Authority.The Northern Ireland Assembly has been meeting at Stormont this week for the first time in two years. There's a whole new executive, finding their desks and their feet, including a new minister for the Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs. It's Andrew Muir, an Alliance party member, who's been visiting Lough Neagh.From sheepdogs to birds of prey, we're hearing about working animals on the programme this week. The shire horse was the original workhorse, essential for heavy farm work like ploughing before the tractor took over. Today the breed is considered endangered but there are still a few working shires left, like the ones at Hook Norton Brewery in Oxfordshireshire, where they're used for delivering beer.Presented by Caz Graham and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
In 2013, broadcaster and journalist Krupa Padhy, one of the presenters for BBC Radio 4's Woman's Hour, lost her first child because of medical negligence in a London Hospital. Legal action was taken. Midwives and doctors were given extra training. Lessons were, apparently, learned. But Krupa's life has been changed forever. Over the last few years, systemic failures at multiple maternity units have been uncovered: at Morecambe Bay, Shrewsbury and Telford and East Kent. An investigation is currently underway in Nottingham and there are calls for a review in Leicester. Krupa wants to know what is happening in our maternity wards and how we make them safer.

Hello from sunny Morecambe! Last week, I found myself overwhelmed by too many open projects, a struggle I shared with you all. But then, as if by some cosmic joke, inspiration struck and I started a new project—a space opera with fantasy elements, set in the far future of my existing universe. I outlined a trilogy and even wrote the first draft of a novella. The words flowed and new worlds unfolded in my mind, sparking an excitement I couldn't resist. I continued reading the Horus Heresy series, immersing myself in "Mark of Calth" and "Vulkan Lives." Then a new thriller, "Fearless" by M. W. Craven, caught my eye and added a different flavour to my literary journey. Outside the world of words, I'm excited about something very special happening on Saturday. I'll be taking part in the Cross-Bay Walk to raise money for Galloway's Society for the Blind. It's a walk over Morecambe Bay when the tide is out, and it promises to be an incredible experience. I invite you to support this noble cause on my Facebook page @joncronshawauthor. And lastly, if you're curious about my works, you can get early access to future stories on my Substack @joncronshawauthor . I hope to see you there, joining me in this ever-unfolding adventure.

Ben Cottam puts on full waterproofs to cross the causeway to Sunderland Point, in search of the grave of a black slave. There are 43 tidal islands around the UK, accessible just briefly each day along beguiling paths. Across the series, five writers journey across a favourite causeway to islands of refuge, pilgrimage, magic and glamour. Wheels spin wildly and Ben peers anxiously through mud-sprayed windscreen as he tries to drive to Sunderland. There is no real boundary between land and sea, the coastline as fluid as the tide. The danger signs escalate and he remembers tales of insidious rising waters, drilled into him as a child by coastguards from Morecambe Bay. He treks to what is uncomfortably called Sambo's grave, the resting place of young black slave. Abandoned there by a sea captain in the 18th century, Ben wonders how his own family might have treated him and is heartened to find fresh tributes marking a lost life. Producer: Sarah Bowen

Despite the fines issued yesterday, Keir Starmer's attacks at Prime Minister's Questions today failed to land on Boris Johnson. In part, this was down to the Prime Minister's 'remarkably pugnacious' attitude, according to James Forsyth on this episode. What's more, it seems that Conservative MPs are happy to allow partygate to take a back seat for now. James remarks that 'previously when Boris Johnson tried that kind of very aggressive tactic... you could see the discomfort on Tory benches. Today I thought that was much less visible.' This all comes after a team bonding dinner at the Crowne Plaza last night, where Boris Johnson gave a boisterous speech to backbench MPs, followed by after-dinner remarks from broadcaster Gyles Brandreth. Was this good timing? 'I do think that the jokes that Boris Johnson was telling is a sign of the current confidence in No 10 about his position', James says. Katy Balls and Isabel Hardman also discuss the Shrewsbury maternity scandal. On Sajid Javid's pledge that this won't happen again, Isabel Hardman says: 'I'm not sure that that is a promise he can really make, because we had that promise after Morecambe Bay, which again was exposed by a bereaved father'.
On the morning of Monday, 3rd September, 1894 - 34 passengers made their way onto a sail-powered boat that would, on a normal day, have taken them on a leisurely trip over to Grange-over-Sands, located on the north side of Morecambe Bay, Cumbria. But what should have been a day of fun and enjoyment, it would quickly escalate into a day of tragedy. Departing from Morecambe promenade and the Princess Sailing Company Landing Stage at around 10 o'clock in the morning, the passenger list comprised of a large contingent of holiday makers who had travelled over from Burnley. The 'Matchless' was a small fishing vessel, commonly known as a 'Lancashire nobby' and was used for fishing during the winter months and for pleasure trips in summer. Seventeen years old, the Matchless was roughly 33 feet (10m) long and weighed around five tons. It also contained a mainsail, foresail, topsail and jib. Operated by its owner, 54 year old Samuel Houghton, who was an experience skipper with many years of sailing, after departing from the landing stage, the vessel wouldn't take long to reach a stretch of water just off Silverdale and approximately six miles from where they had departed. The passengers, who, by now were in a merry mood and singing "Dare to be a Daniel!", were oblivious to the impending danger that was fast approaching. Moments later, the Matchless seemed to slow down and to the right, the water had darkened slightly. One of the passengers said to Houghton, "I think we have stopped altogether," and then there was a lull, with the waters becoming still but very dark looking. Out of nowhere, a huge gust slammed into the right side of the vessel, filling the sails and pitching it from left-to-right. And in no time at all, another gust struck from above, followed by a sudden squall, this time throwing the passengers into the water, leaving them no time to grab onto anything. The Matchless began to rock from side-to-side before finally succumbing to the wind as she keeled over, and as the frantic passengers tried desperately to keep themselves afloat, it would only take a few minutes for the Matchless to disappear beneath the water. Just over one-hundred yards away was Edward Gardner, a fisherman of Morecambe, who was also sailing his boat with seventeen passengers, taking the same route as that of Samuel on the Matchless. Having just crossed over a junction in the channel and making headway towards Grange-over-Sands, Edward himself felt the gust of wind as it hit his boat. Looking over towards the direction of where the wind had originated from, he admitted to thinking to himself at a later inquest that the next breeze would be an ordinary breeze and did not think about altering the course of his boat. He would later go on to mention that the wind was more akin to that of being like a whirlwind, first crashing along one side before rounding his boat and hitting it head-on the opposite side. However, whilst he had managed to control his boat, he would see the Matchless pitching over and disappearing into the sea. Instinctively, he turned his boat around to make haste towards the panic-stricken passengers in the water. In total he helped to recover six passengers who were alive and one, unfortunately who had died. For more on this interesting story, please visit our website - www.daysofhorror.com

Morecambe Bay, Shrewsbury, Telford and East Kent. Those are the names of hospital trusts where the failures in maternity care have been exposed. And now, sadly, there's one more – Nottingham University Trust. A joint investigation by Channel 4 News and Shaun Lintern at The Independent exposed a maternity service accused of bad care and neglect after dozens of babies were left with brain damage or tragically died. They found from 2010 to 2020, at least 46 babies have suffered brain damage and 19 have been stillborn at Nottingham University Hospitals (NUH) NHS trust maternity units. But this story of poor care of mothers and babies, one of repeated failures to investigate deaths of babies in maternity units, is one we've heard many times before. So why do we keep getting it wrong? Is there something fundamentally wrong with the way babies are born in this country? Sources: BBC News, ITV News, 5 News
The Wildlife Trusts are calling for more investment in nature to help rebuild after the pandemic. They've published a new report called ‘Wilder Recovery’. That recovery could come through initiatives like ‘The Bay - A Blueprint for Recovery’. It’s a project encouraging greater connection with nature, including social prescribing by GPs and mental health teams, around Morecambe Bay. Farms are among the most dangerous workplaces - 20 people lost their lives while working on farms from 2019 to 2020 according to the Health and Safety Executive, and there were 12 thousand injuries in the same period. How can agriculture improve its safety record? Psychologist Dr Amy Irwin from the University of Aberdeen has been been conducting research on farm safety and believes her findings could lead to fewer deaths. She says we need to change the culture on farms. For instance, many farmers don't wear helmets on quad bikes, sometimes because they forget them, or may not have one, but often because they think wearing one makes them look silly. As part of our series on rural tourism, we look at how one farm attraction has fared over the past year. Roves Farm near Swindon makes most of its money from visitors. Under lockdown its income plummeted, but the farm shop selling home-produced meat and eggs kept it going. Now lockdown's eased, visitors are back, can the farm recoup that lost income?

This week, side by side with Neil, we're striding across a vast, treacherous bay where one false move could see us paying for it with our lives.Almost 500 years ago, in 1548, the people of Morecambe Bay Sands asked for help, because crossing this vast tidal expanse was so treacherous many lives were being lost. The tides race across the sands faster than a horse can gallop and the bay is dotted with patches of deadly quicksand known locally as Melgraves, which have caught and dragged many to their deaths.Morecambe Bay is surround and suffused with history, from the C14th Piel castle, which was the Yorkists mustering point in the last hurrah of the Wars of the Roses, to the Midland Hotel, an art deco masterpiece bursting with glitz and glamourous guests, which was opened in 1933.

This year the Contains Strong Language Festival of poetry and spoken word goes to Cumbria, as part of the programme of events marking the 250th anniversary of William Wordsworth's birth. This week's Verb was recorded at the Forum Theatre in Barrow-in-Furness, with a small, but enthusiastic socially distanced audience. Our theme is the meeting of language and landscape, and Ian's guests are the poet Clare Shaw whose 2018 collection Flood conveys water at its most awesome and destructive, writer and playwright Zosia Wand, who uses the shifting sands of Morecambe Bay as her stage in work that examines how we find identity amidst unreliable memories and family secrets. National Youth Slam Poetry Champion Matt Sowerby is one of the poets commissioned by the Contains Strong Language Festival to write a poem in response to Ruskin's View, alongside Karen Lloyd, who also reads from her work in progress book of essays on the importance of telling hopeful stories and truly paying attention tot he natural world. Many of the events at Contains Strong Language are available to view online, please see the website for more details: https://www.bbc.co.uk/events/ezb3v2 Presenter: Ian McMillan Producer: Jessica Treen
Dove Cottage Grasmere is the heart of Romantic poetry and is hosting part of this year's Contains Strong Language festival. We'll be asking what the Romantics have to tell us now, with the poet Kate Clanchy who has adapted Samuel Taylor Coleridge's unfinished poem Christabel with a newly commissioned score by composer Katie Chatburn. Novelist, poet and playwright Zosia Wand was born in London but didn't speak English till she went to school and spent all her holidays in Poland. Now she's written a radio play Bones - set on the sandbanks of Morecambe Bay - exploring how it feels to be a migrant and the emotional impact on the generations that follow. In 2005 the award winning poet and novelist Jacob Polley’s home town of Carlisle flooded catastrophically after heavy rain. Three people died and thousands were left homeless in an event that was supposed to be a one in a hundred year event. Now Jacob Polley’s returned to that time for a new play Emergency. It’s a love story set against a merciless storm voiced through ancient Anglo-Saxon riddles about the power of nature. And we discuss the impact of poetry in isolation with the young poet Hannah Hodgson who is living with a life limiting disease. She'll read from her lockdown collection and discuss how poetry managed to say what we needed to say this year from zoom poetry slams to tik tok haikus.

Sir Richard Henriques has been centre stage in some of the most high-profile and notorious cases of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. After taking silk in 1986, over the course of the next 14 years he appeared in no fewer than 106 murder trials, including prosecuting Harold Shipman, Britain's most prolific serial killer, and the killers of James Bulger. In 2000 he was appointed to the High Court Bench and tried the transatlantic airline plot, the Morecambe Bay cockle pickers, the killing of Jean Charles de Menezes, and many other cases. He sat in the Court of Appeal on the appeals of Barry George, then convicted of murdering Jill Dando, and Jeremy Bamber, the White House Farm killer. In From Crime to Crime Richard Henriques tells the story behind his most famous cases and includes his trenchant views on the state of the British judicial system; how it works - or doesn't - and the current threats to the rule of law that affect us all.

In Morecambe Bay, which straddles North Lancashire and South Cumbria, we are passionate about developing trauma-informed practice. Our ‘Little Book of ACEs’ has been adopted by the WHO and is now available in other languages, and we are in the process of writing the next instalment, ‘The Not So Little Book of ACEs’. Here, we discuss in the round why trauma has such an impact on our lives, what we can do to prevent it, how we can help those who are going through it and how we can heal the wounds that we carry as a result of trauma we have suffered. As we gain more understanding, we can become more compassionate and create together a society that is more woke to the reality of what is, perhaps, our biggest public health crisis.
Aaron Cummins, CEO of University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay talks about his leadership tactics.
