Pick of the Week
I have just finished listening to Melvyn Barg's In Our Time on Radio 4 - The Blackfriars and The Greyfriars - about the Franciscan and Dominican orders. Quite brilliant. Papayoudilly says: This is radio of the highest calibre - it rocks!.
I strongly recommend you download In Our Time (This prog has now gone, but the whole show seems to have taken an interesting philosophical bent) . And while you're at it, you could do a lot worse than go to Radio 4 listen again and listen to Genius with Dave Gorman and John Fortune (ibid).

I have no memory of Smiley's People or (though I'm sure I've read the book and seen the tv thang) of nuns with peculiar disabilities (if a javelin through the head counts as a disabilit, and lifts? Invented by the Otis brothers in the nineteenth century.
If you contact me by the usual methods, I may be able to supply a hot copy of the Bragg discussion...
