Lemn Sissay

Poet Lemn Sissay chooses his ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio highlights.

By the misty marshes in Kent we discover the man who made Barry Manilow a star in 1970's. We stay in that decade to hear a investigative journalist read the files on Leonard Bernstein created by The FBI who spied on him for three decades.
Wear the first person testimony of fear as bombs explode around a house under siege, and meet the actors who voiced Gerry Adams when the government banned his voice.
There are dragons and dripping and Channel swimmers. Even Donald Trump gets a look in as he misquoted a ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio 4 presenter. Fake News? It's true he did.

Produced by Cecile Wright and Dave James.
