ARTS WEDNESDAY 8 SEPTEMBER 2010

Jonathan James will join me at 9:45 am for Now Showing, with a hard act to follow last week’s Silent Dinner Party! At 10:10 am I will be joined by Andrew Shapiro who promised to talk about the New Antiques scene in London.

My special guest this week at 10:30 am is Pai Kit Fai, aka Geoff Pike, who has written a pot boiler of a novel called Red Lotus. However, there is a lot more to his story than this book: Geoff is 81 and a Master of Martial Arts, a status he attained at the august age of 77. He took up martial arts as a way to successfully combat throat cancer! And there’s more! I really can’t wait to meet him.

No prizes for guessing that this week’s music is Chinese!

As usual, I look forward to your company!
