A Christmassy edition of the P pod this week with behind the scenes info from the Town Council’s Kathryn Ellis-Blandford about the virtual Christmas Lights short film and Stephen Martin talks to local professional violinist Sara Deborah Timossi about her musical contribution to an online music advent calendar that you can buy for yourself and a friend.

Joff has a cheerful chat with Jon Walker from the Petersfield Post and Suzie Wilde takes Collabro’s Michael Auger for a Durleighmarsh Wilde Walk to plan for their upcoming Christmas Show.

Local music features alt-rock singer James Needs - think Frank Turner meets Billy Bragg with a bit of George Ezra and a funky selection of dungarees - with his song Lucky.

Don’t forget to record your message of comfort and joy - you may need to send one to Joff after the week he’s had!

You can contact the show by email pod@theppod.uk or call 01730 555 500.
