Me on BBC

Image

I recorded a few – six, I think – brief items on wine for the BBC Radio 4 programme Woman's Hour with Simon Parkes in early autumn. Two or three have already been broadcast and I was given no notice of their transmission dates, but I am told that the segment on 'heavy reds' (sounds so appetising...) will be broadcast at some point tomorrow morning, Wednesday 10 Dec, between 10 and 10.45 am.

You can listen retrospectively once the programme has gone out here, should you wish to by any chance.

And while we're about it, I recorded the commentary for a very interesting hour-long tv programme about the influential  architect Andrea Palladio which will open a season on the Renaissance on BBC4 at 9pm next Wednesday 17 Dec. There's even a vineyard in it, associated with one of his beautiful classical villas in the Veneto.
