Pick of the Week - 04/04/2010

Liz Barclay makes her selection from the last seven days of BBC Radio Whose most important political speech was 'close that window? Which prominent politician was driven to breaking point by toothache? Which American humourist is obsessed by US gun laws and which famous athlete ran the first London Marathon after a night of Pina Coladas and prawn curry? Pick of the Week has the answers. Augustus John, JD Innes and The Glasgow Boys may have been ahead of their time with their impressionist and post impressionist paintings but it's Rolf Harris who's made the lasting impression. He's in fine voice and Dr Who and David Suchet are on the cast list too.
