This week, we have an ear over some of the playlist Motherland's Anna Maxwell Martin experienced on her continental childhood coach trip; if there was a service station stop or two on the way, would it have been an enjoyable experience or one to forget? The Food Programme is looking at grabbing a bite on the go from our motorway service stations. There鈥檚 books galore as well: from a labour movement simmering in the heatwave of 1976, to Douglas Stuart鈥檚 intimate portrait of masculinity in his novel John of John. Plus, poet Bradley Taylor tells the entire Ancient Greek pantheon to shove it.
