In this episode of Oh! What a Lovely Podcast, Angus, Chris, Jessica, and returning guest Ann-Marie Einhaus discuss War-Time in Our Street by J. E. Buckrose.   Set in a fictional Yorkshire village, these stories capture everyday resilience, humour, and quiet courage — from blackout chapel services and food shortages to romances and small acts of kindness amid wartime hardships.   Buckrose, the pen name of Annie Edith Jameson, was a prolific writer who produced more than forty novels exploring domestic life and family tensions with gentle humour. War-Time in Our Street offers a fascinating glimpse of how ordinary people became part of the wider war effort.     ReferencesJE Buckhouse,  WarTime In Our Street  (1917) – Down Our Street Dorothy Whipple, High Wages (1930) Dad's Army  (1968-1977) Sandra Kemp, Charlotte Mitchell, and David Trotter, Oxford Companion to Edwardian Fiction (1997) Sapper, Sergeant Michael Cassidy RE (1915) Robert Harris, Act of Oblivion (2022) Kate Atkinson, Behind the Scenes at the Museum (1995) - Shrines of Gaiety (2022) Angela Brazil Eden Phillpotts, The Humand Boy and the War (1919) Jesse Pope Jean Webster, Daddy-Long-Legs (1912) Ann-Marie Einhaus & Barbara Korte, The Penguin Book of First World War Stories: From Arthur Machen to Julian Barnes (2007)

As autumn descends, I wanted to face a classic symbol in British and European folklore - the black dogWe start in East Anglia, England, with perhaps the most famous of all shadow hounds: Black Shuck, who makes an appearance in St Mary's church of Bungay in 1577, storms to raise havoc. And a reading drawn from Ghosts and Witches by Wentworth + Ayrton, 1991, on the Galleytrot and Shuck.Before facing:The Barghest of Yorkshire, accompanied by rattling chains, may have inspired Bram Stoker's Dracula's transformation into an enormous black dog in Whitby.Yeth Hounds (Devon)Whisht Hounds (Devon/Dartmoor)Richard Cabell's Hounds (Dartmoor) widely considered a major inspiration for Arthur Conan Doyle's The Hound of the Baskervilles.The Devil's Dandy Dogs (Cornwall): A terrifying hunt led by Satan himself.The Wish Hounds or Witch Hounds of SussexThe Church Grim, a guardian spirit that appears as a large black dogAnd The Moddey Dhoo of the Isle of Man: Meaning "black dog" in Manx, this giant shaggy-haired dog that haunted Peel Castle And we finish with readings of The Moddey Doo or the Black Dog of Peel Castle from Manx Fairy Tales by Sophia Morrison, 1911 and The Book of Were-Wolves by Sabine Baring-Gould, 1865.

On this week's show, host Phil Harrison is joined by The YP's football writing team of Leon Wobschall and Stuart Rayner.They kick off by discussing Leeds United's reality check with defeats at Arsenal and Sheffield Wednesday, the Owls finally enjoying some positives with their League Cup triumph over their Yorkshire rivals and their come-from-behind first league point at Wrexham. Still no points for Sheffield United but some good news arrives with a step up in signings at Bramall Lane. A good night for most of Yorkshire's clubs in the EFL Cup, preceded a third round draw which offers numerous opportunities for giant-killing performances. And we cast an eye over the decision by York City to sack manager Adam Hinshelwood, just four games into the season.

We've walked the Corrie cobbles more times than we can count, so we thought - why not give the Dales a try? Last weekend, we headed up to Yorkshire for the Emmerdale Village Tour, despite knowing next to nothing about ITV's second soap. And, of course, it wouldn't be a Conversation Street trip up north without a little detour! Alongside the official tour, we also popped over to Esholt, the village that was home to Emmerdale between 1976 and 1997. But the big question is: is the Emmerdale tour worth taking if you don't know your Dingles from your Sugdens? Tune in to find out!

We now compare and maybe contrast the experiences of going through education, employment and life for two Yorkshire blind people 50 years apart with the Rt Hon Lord Blunkett and Holly Tuke.   In a recent column in the Yorkshire Post the Right Honourable Lord Blunkett talked openly about the challenges of being blind, something he rarely talks about as he prefers to be defined by his achievements in life and not by the barriers he has had to overcome. Holly Tuke, RNIB's Social Media Manager who has been blind from birth and went through education about 50 years after Lord Blunkett has written a follow up article in The Yorkshire Post talking about some of the challenges she has faced and over come in her life too.  RNIB Connect Radio's Toby Davey brought both Lord Blunkett and Holly together to share an insight into their lives as two Yorkshire blind people who may be 50 years apart but possibly very much similar in so many ways. If you, or someone you know, would like information on the support and services available from RNIB, go to www.rnib.org.uk. You can call our Helpline on 0303 123 9999 Or ask your Amazon smart speaker to call RNIB's Helpline. (Image shows the RNIB Connect Radio logo.

​A few weeks ago on a visit to Leeds, Health Secretary Wes Streeting said there was "something really special" about the health ecosystem in the city - which boasts more NHS England and Department for Health staff than anywhere outside London. But the ambitions of health bosses in Yorkshire's biggest city go ​f​urther still. A few days ago its hospital trust set out a new strategy to cement its position as the UK's largest research powerhouse outside the traditional so-called Golden Triangle of life sciences in London, Oxford and Cambridge. Targeting a 40% increase in research activity by 2030, it's hoped the five-year research and innovation strategy will achieve a host of other goals, namely improving health outcomes, tackling health inequalities and driving economic growth. On the Northern Agenda podcast this week, Dr Chris Herbert, Director of Operations for Research and Innovation at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, tells Rob Parsons​ about the pioneering work its researchers are already doing, the North-South divide on research funding and how he wants underserved communities in Yorkshire to feel the benefit from the new strategy.

 The moment Christina saw a woman looking back at her in the mirror changed everything. "I can't really describe the euphoria," she reveals. "It was like finding something I didn't know was missing."Christina's journey began with childhood signs that went unrecognised. Growing up in the 1990s, she always gravitated toward traditionally feminine activities and friendships with girls, yet lacked the framework to understand her identity. When her father bought her football tickets as a treat, she innocently asked, "Have I been really naughty? Is this a punishment?"Her journey took a troubling detour at university when she first approached a GP about gender dysphoria, only to be dismissed with antidepressants that numbed rather than helped. "I was treating a symptom in a very negative, very non-constructive way," Christina reflects. Years passed before the COVID lockdown forced her to confront suppressed feelings and begin her transition in earnest.Coming out proved so challenging that Christina initially wrote letters to friends, unable to verbalise her identity. While most relationships survived her transition, including a remarkable friendship with her supportive ex-wife, others couldn't accept her authentic self. Today, Christina works with trans support groups in Greater Manchester, helping others navigate similar journeys.Her story illuminates the power of persistence through societal barriers and personal doubt. As Christina puts it: "It's a marathon, not a sprint... I never thought I'd be able to get to where I am now." Her experience reminds us that while finding yourself may be difficult, the joy of authenticity makes every step worthwhile. Presented by Emma Goswell Produced by Sam Walker We'd love to hear YOUR story.

Rewilding advocate, financier and host of the popular podcast Rewilding the World, Ben Goldsmith, joins Mongabay's podcast to discuss nature restoration in his home country of England, where a significant cultural change is taking hold toward reviving biodiversity, such as beavers. Once seen as a nuisance there, many farmers and planners now embrace the rebound of the huge rodent, thanks to its impressive ability to mitigate flooding events that the island nation now experiences with regularity, due to climate change. “If you stop a random person on the street now, in the city or in the countryside, they know that beavers are back, that [they] are native species, that they play a vital role in managing our rivers,” he says. However, he argues that while there has been some rewilding momentum in England, it's not happening fast enough, particularly for larger carnivores like wolves. “The idea of reintroducing them is considered madness. Even though there are news reports of swelling populations of deer and growing incidents of Lyme disease and road traffic collisions and a disequilibrium in our forests,” Goldsmith says.

In this episode, Emily McAteer, a homeopathic veterinarian from Ireland, talks about her path from conventional practice to holistic care, sparked by a remarkable experience treating her son's hay fever. She explains the link between the health of pets and their guardians, the benefits of integrating homeopathy with conventional treatments, and the growing interest in alternative medicine among younger vets. Emily also reflects on the value of collaboration within the veterinary community and shares her plans for the upcoming British Association of Homeopathic Veterinary Surgeons Conference, where she will present her work and connect with fellow practitioners. Episode Highlights: 02:51 - The Overnight Transformation in Her Son's Health 04:17 - The Search for a Missing Piece in Animal Healing 06:59 - How a Guardian's Health Can Affect Their Pet's Well-being 10:11 - Becoming Junior Vice President of the BAVH  12:21 - Signs of Renewed Interest in Homeopathy 13:39 - Details on the BAHVS Conference 18:07 - Administering Remedies to Animals 21:32 - Buddhism and Its Influence on Veterinary Practice 25:07 - The Bond Between Pets and Their Guardians 27:39 - Homeopathy's Growth in Ireland About my Guests: Emily McAteer is a Dublin-based veterinarian who owns and runs an integrative practice combining holistic and conventional approaches, with a special focus on homeopathy. Introduced to the practice by her uncle, a Homeopathic GP in Yorkshire, Emily's passion was sparked when she used it successfully to treat her children—and later witnessed its remarkable results in animals. A graduate of University College Dublin in Veterinary Medicine (1990), she has been using homeopathy in her practice for over 20 years. She earned her MFHom from the Integrative School of Medicine in Bristol in 2018, later qualified through the Irish School of Homeopathy to treat animal guardians, and is currently pursuing postgraduate studies at The Dynamis School for homeopaths. Outside of her veterinary work, Emily loves music festivals, hiking, sea swimming, and traveling in her campervan with her dog. She is the proud mother of three adult children and shares her home with her dog and a “cosmic” cat named Betty Boop. Her mission is to inspire and educate more veterinarians about the power of homeopathy and to unite the profession internationally, supporting the healing of both animals and their guardians.

Como ya hemos hablado, el Hinglish, el Spanglish y el Portuñol son todos ejemplos de mezclas lingüísticas o lenguajes híbridos, donde elementos de dos o más idiomas se entrelazan [74, Conversation History]. Son como "alfombras de lenguas" porque tejen palabras y expresiones de diferentes orígenes.El Hinglish, según nuestras fuentes, es una combinación dinámica de inglés y lenguas específicas del sur de Asia, principalmente el hindi, el urdu o el punjabi [74, Conversation History]. En el Reino Unido, a menudo se refiere al uso de palabras del sur de Asia dentro de una oración predominantemente en inglés, mientras que en la India, es frecuente lo contrario: palabras inglesas se entrelazan en oraciones predominantemente hindi, urdu o punjabi [74, Conversation History]. Esta mezcla puede añadir "sabor único y profundidad emocional" a la comunicación [Conversation History]. Las fuentes nos muestran muchos ejemplos de palabras Hinglish de uso común, como akal (sentido común), izzat (honor), josh (pasión), chai (té), bas! (¡suficiente!), entre muchas otras [74, 141, Conversation History].En contraste:El Spanglish es la fusión específica de español e inglés [Conversation History].El Portuñol (o Portunhol) es una mezcla que combina el portugués y el español [Conversation History].El hilo conductor entre todos ellos es que son ejemplos de alternancia de códigos (code-switching) o mezcla de idiomas, donde los hablantes combinan fluidamente elementos de dos lenguas diferentes dentro de la misma conversación o incluso frase [Conversation History]. Este fenómeno es impulsado a menudo por necesidades de comunicación en el mundo real, la identidad cultural o la evolución natural del lenguaje en contextos multiculturales [Conversation History].La razón por la que solo el Hinglish se destaca en nuestras fuentes con el carácter de "lengua común" es debido a la amplitud y profundidad de su prevalencia, integración e impacto, que no se detalla para el Spanglish o el Portuñol en los textos proporcionados:Enorme Base de Hablantes y Crecimiento Proyectado: Se dice que el Hinglish es "hablado como segunda lengua por 350 millones de indios". Un lingüista británico, David Crystal, incluso sugiere que el Hinglish "podría convertirse pronto en la forma más común de inglés hablado" a nivel mundial. Esta escala es masiva.Profundas Raíces Históricas y Ubicuidad: Las palabras del sur de Asia se han incorporado al inglés británico desde finales del siglo XVI. Estos términos, que alguna vez fueron "emocionantes y extravagantes", se han vuelto tan "comunes" que ahora se consideran "tan británicos como el rosbif y el pudín de Yorkshire, o... el pollo tikka masala". Esto indica una integración cultural profunda y duradera.Integración Cultural y Literaria: El Hinglish "encapsula el corazón y el akal (sentido común) de la cultura del sur de Asia" [Conversation History], siendo descrito como un "híbrido dinámico y vibrante" e incluso el "nacimiento de una lengua" [Conversation History]. Su presencia en obras literarias, como las "Hinglish Versions" de novelas, y diccionarios con entradas detalladas, subraya su estatus funcional y culturalmente significativo.Así, mientras que el Spanglish y el Portuñol son, sin duda, fusiones lingüísticas, el Hinglish es presentado con evidencia de una adopción y una proyección de futuro que le confieren una característica de "lengua común" de una manera única en la información que tenemos.Podríamos ver estas mezclas como diferentes tipos de "cócteles lingüísticos": cada uno tiene una base de ingredientes distinta (los idiomas que lo componen), pero todos comparten la característica de ser una fusión creativa, reflejando la fluidez y adaptabilidad de los hablantes. El Hinglish, con su inmensa y creciente comunidad de hablantes, es como un cóctel que se está convirtiendo rápidamente en un elemento básico en la mesa global.

As Grace Dent takes a short summer break, the team is delving into the archives to bring you some of their favourite episodes. This week, we rewind to January 2023, when Grace welcomed actor James Norton into her home. Grace realised there's a lot more to learn about James, from his idyllic early years in Yorkshire, to a stint at a very religious boarding school, his breakthrough on the West End and, of course, the food that has been with him through it all

The UK is heavily reliant on fruit and vegetables grown overseas. But a new report predicts that, by 2050, around half of fruit and veg imports to the UK will be affected by climate change risks including rising temperatures and diminishing water supplies. Water management is such a burning topic at the moment that the NFU has just held its first Water Summit on a Yorkshire farm. And, how do you incentivise reintroduced Beavers to shape rivers the way you intend?Presenter: Anna Hill Producer: Sarah Swadling

In this deeply personal episode, I'm joined by Harriet Ennis, a psychology teacher from York and this year's winner of the British Psychological Society's Pre-Tertiary Education Psychology Teacher of the Year (PEPTOTY). Harriet reached out to share her personal experience of Emotionally Based School Avoidance (EBSA), previously referred to as school refusal. Harriet brings both professional insight and a powerful parental perspective to the conversation, as she opens up about her daughter J's journey through this challenging experience. EBSA describes children who are unable—not unwilling—to attend school due to overwhelming emotional or mental health difficulties. It's estimated that 1–5% of students experience EBSA, though this number may be even higher post-COVID. It's not about truancy or defiance—it's about real, often invisible, distress.

A letter arrives—calm in tone, almost conversational. But beneath its surface, something unsettles. A favour once done, a house long locked, a memory that won't quite settle. There are impressions that can't be explained, and a sense—quiet, persistent—that something was not as it should have been. The Clock first appeared in W. F. Harvey's 1928 collection The Beast with Five Fingers, published by J. M. Dent & Sons. It has since been reprinted in several major ghost story anthologies. William Fryer Harvey (1885–1937) was a Yorkshire-born writer and Quaker, best known for his concise and unsettling tales of the supernatural. A former naval surgeon, he was awarded the Albert Medal for Lifesaving during the First World War.

In this episode, I chat with Emma Stoney and Katie Gill — athletes, coaches, and the driving force behind Pretty Gritty, a Yorkshire-based community for female triathletes. We explore how they created a supportive space for women in sport, the unique challenges facing female athletes, and how they balance family, coaching, and business. We discuss: How an ankle injury sparked new reflections on risk, adventure, and storytelling Why many women feel conflicted about long-distance triathlon training The surprising power of community, confidence, and showing up How Pretty Gritty grew from a local swim session to a thriving community, apparel brand, and retreat business Why they've stuck to their “women only” ethos — and how it's shaped their success Resources & Links: Follow Pretty Gritty on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube (For adventure videos, workouts, marathon training vlog.)

Outback Odyssey by Paul Rushworth-Brown https://www.amazon.com/Outback-Odyssey-Paul-Rushworth-Brown/dp/1964700140 Paulrushworthbrown.com "Outback Odyssey" tells the story of a young man from Yorkshire who emigrates to Australia in the 1950s under the Big Brother Movement scheme. Working on a sheep station with Aboriginal stockmen, he learns the ways of the outback and pursues the legend of Wiberg's Gold. This novel promises to combine the rich historical detail Rushworth-Brown is known for with the rugged allure of the Australian wilderness.About the author Paul's novels are authentic and gritty, with twists and turns the reader won't see coming. He paints a realistic image of how peasants would have lived in the 16th and 17th centuries. However, that is only the backdrop to suspenseful and mysterious stories with romantic tones. His novel 'Red Winter Journey' https://bit.ly/3WXHVUs has been nominated for the NSW Premier's Literary Awards (Christina Stead Prize for fiction). His new novel 'Dream of Courage' has been long-listed for the Historical Fiction Club's Book of the Year Award and will be released in November. Paul has been a guest on ABC, BBC, and America Tonight with Kate Delaney and regularly features on the Witty Writers Show in the US.

Juliana Horatia Ewing (August 3, 1841 – May 13, 1885) was an English writer of children's stories. Her writings display a sympathetic insight into children's lives, an admiration for things military, and a strong religious faith.Known as Julie, she was the second of ten children of the Rev. Alfred Gatty, Vicar of Ecclesfield in Yorkshire, and Margaret Gatty, who was herself a children's author. Their children were educated mainly by their mother, but Julie was often the driving force behind their various activities: drama, botany and so on. Later she was responsible for setting up a village library in Ecclesfield, and helped out in the parish with her three sisters. Early stories of hers appeared in Charlotte Mary Yonge's magazine The Monthly Packet.On 1 June 1867, Julie married Major Alexander Ewing(1830–1895) of the Army Pay Corps. A musician, composer and translator, he was also a keen churchgoer and shared his wife's interest in literature. Within a week of their marriage, the Ewings left England for Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada, where he had received a new posting. They remained there for two years, before returning to England in 1869 and spending eight years in the army town of Aldershot. Although her husband was sent overseas again, to Malta in 1879 and Sri Lanka in 1881, Ewing's poor health precluded her from accompanying him.On her husband's return in 1883, the Ewings moved to Trull, Somerset, and then in 1885 to Bath, in the hopes that the change of air would do her good. However, her health continued to decline. After two operations, she died in Bath on 13 May 1885. She was given a military funeral at Trull three days later.Julie's sister Horatia Katharine Frances Gatty (1846–1945) published a memorial of her life and works, which includes a publication history of her stories. A later selection includes some of Julie's letters and drawings about Canada. A biography of her by Gillian Avery appeared in 1961.-bio via Wikipedia This is a public episode.
