It’s winter solstice in the Northern Hemisphere & 20th Dec is when #thedarkisrising opens. The longest night. Susan Cooper’s novel follows Will, a boy about to turn 11. He should be excited, its Christmas too. But there’s something deeply wrong in the world. 👂 @BBCSounds

@Anjirbaguette @RobGMacfarlane I’d say the 20th!

When do we all start listening to the BBC #TheDarkIsRising radio play this week (mainly asking @RobGMacfarlane here)? Debating a read along this year too. It's been a long term and a longer year and also five years squished into one and also it's still just been last Christmas

The Purple Heart Warriors: in WW2, a Japanese American troop was one of the most decorated army units in US history. 🎧 Hear the events that have shaped our world through the eyes of the people who were there bbc.in/3VwA9lX

Here’s a time-bending drama series. It’s about the 442nd battalion, the bravest of the brave, and the most decorated military unit in the history of the USA. They were a segregated unit of 2nd gen Japanese-Americans fighting Nazis for democracy. 🎧 🎧 🎧 bbc.co.uk/programmes/w3c…

And so it starts again. Listen with us from December 20th. And hope against hope. bbc.co.uk/sounds/brand/w…
