I've just listened to the first 2 episodes - moving stuff, and I think it's so important to think about these things. I was also interested to hear that Joe is an actor - I had a look at what he's been in. I enjoyed the adaptation of Howard's End that he was in & might have to give it a rewatch!
Who or what is Roseberry Topping? Find out in our new episode featuring @theyounguns.bsky.social - out now.

Roseberry Topping always sounds to me like something you'd sprinkle on top of a dessert. But in fact, it is a real place, and Matthew's been busy climbing it with @theyounguns.bsky.social. Give it a listen (maybe whilst having a dessert).

If you heard the glorious voice of Olivia Chaney on the soundtrack of the new Wuthering Heights film, you’ll love coming for a walk with her across the Yorkshire moors in this classic episode of Folk on Foot.

A folly in the grounds of Petworth Park provides the perfect acoustics for the soaring harmonies of Lady Maisery.

13 events sold out at Stage4Beverley this year! And 84% of tickets sold overall, not that I'm counting or anything. It's been great to see this festival going from strength to strength.
Stunning new episode out now!
Nice shoes! 👌 Enjoy the gig!
Very pleased it worked out ok! Our programmer had quite a job on her hands to find a replacement with a couple of days to go, but this will be brilliant. It's so rare to see Kate in an intimate setting these days, and especially as a duo with Damien. Poor Sam, hope he is better soon.

I agree - it had a lot going for it (some great performances), but overall I felt it was lacking something. The pacing at the start was very slow, but then other bits were skipped over. The trailer set my expectations high, which might not have helped. Haven’t read the book to compare them.
I guess you got lost in your train of thought.
Thank you! 🙂
Well done! I’ve got all but Noising Up - not sure if it’s still happening or how to submit though.
I would definitely do this, or jump with fright at my own reflection.
Photo of Janice Burns & Jon Doran stood outside on some rocks, with more rocky terrain in the background behind them. Janice is a young white woman with long brown curly hair, and she’s wearing a long orange dress. Jon is a young white man who’s wearing trousers and a light-coloured shirt. There is text over the top of the photo which says “Celtic Connections, 15 Jan - 1 Feb 2026”.
Very proud and excited to share that @janandjon.bsky.social will be performing orchestral arrangements of their songs with the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra at Celtic Connections on 16th January. A real dream-come-true gig for us! ❤️
