Listen to Helen Mark as she visits The Linen Hall to learn about and enjoy a unique prospect, an Ulster-Scots jukebox loaded with poetry, much of it celebrating or inspired by the work of Robert Burns and the Gibson collection within the Library.

My thanks to Helen and Rab at Kintra for capturing the magical launch of 'Out of the Silence' and for continuing the important conversation about women, creativity and Ulster-Scots.

Today @HelenMark01 heads to the Shropshire hills to learn about the art of nature-writing. She visits the @arvonfoundation and joins budding writers drawing inspiration from the landscape. Today 3pm on Radio 4, any time you like on @BBCSounds bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…

@BBCOpenCountry @arvonfoundation @BBCSounds Such an inspiration to be with the nature writers at The Hurst @arvonfoundation. A joy of an @BBCOpenCountry to make. Off mic the chats and cooking and sharing food together was a delight.

@SimonGray14 @BC_Dorset @savebutterflies This moth on the bedroom wall this evening …markings make it look like an animal face.

Just a few of the colourful moths we saw at the @BC_Dorset event at Alners Gorse earlier last month! So great to see so many species we wouldn’t normally see at home! @savebutterflies #moths #alnersgorse

@jackabuss @BBCSounds @oliverscider I’ll ask a producer next week and see. But I strongly suspect it’s gone!
English

@HelenMark01 Thank you Helen ☺️ I had a good trawl through @BBCSounds archive, but it only goes back to 2009. Do you reckon the show still exists somewhere? Would love to hear you talking to @oliverscider about the Coppy tree back then. Perhaps a revisit is on the cards?
English

Hi @HelenMark01 , do you know if there’s a way of listing to this episode of Open Country from back in Nov 4th, 2006? I can find the synopsis, but the “listen to” button doesn’t go anywhere on my phone or laptop. 🍐 bbc.co.uk/radio4/factual…
English

@jackabuss And even all that time ago I remember making that one - my first taste of Perry! I’ve had some wonderful experiences making Open Country over the years. A real privilege to meet people and gather their stories.
