From Polly's faceach page;
THE PEOPLE’S SONGS – BBC RADIO 2
We thought you might be interested to know that Stuart Maconie is hosting a new series on Radio 2 called the ‘The People’s Songs’. The show looks at modern Britain through 50 records. The first episode which ran on January 2nd is called ‘We’ll Meet Again’ which focusses on Britain during WWII and features music from ‘Let England Shake’. The episode can be played on the BBC iPlayer. More information can be found here http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01lplv4

Good job you're here, mart! I was alerted to this when someone wrote good things - mentioning Polly - about it on Twitter a few days ago.

Miranda Sawyer's review:

'I liked how Maconie sneaked in PJ Harvey along the way, too.'

Wiggins is so superbly unassuming, he looks like he's about to say 'Pop the gold medal in the post, I'm nipping out for some biscuits'
