Pick of the Week - 10/10/2010

Sarah Montague makes her selection from the past seven days of BBC Radio On the programme this week, Alexei Sayle takes us on a tour of Liverpool and John Lennon's childhood home. We go out on a bear hunt with women in Canada. There's musical theatre, the Scissor Sisters in concert and Beethoven's music for the soul. We ponder the nature of forgiveness and redemption. And revel in the honesty of politicians and diplomats..
