Sheila McClennon makes her selection from the past seven days of BBC Radio On this week's Pick of the Week, a beautifully evocative tale from A L Kennedy who recalls a summer helping her grandmother, a French polisher The mystery behind the ghostly poem Flannel Isle is unravelled and there's the fascinating true story of the man behind the initials HM - who never knew he was the world's most famous amnesiac And plenty of laughs from the National Theatre of Brent's "in depth glimpse" of modern art - in a nutshell.
