The P pod this week goes back in time to Butser Ancient Farm to find out what’s new at this unique local attraction as it reopens.

Shine Radio’s Alan Cosh talks to Senior Consultant Nurse Jules Cavalier about the exciting new medical plans for the Petersfield Community Hospital.

Jon Walker brings the latest local news from the Petersphere, Suzie heads to Langley with both dogs on a cold, windy day and Joff takes a stroll through town on Monday lunchtime to talk to a few shop owners as they open their doors once more.

We end the show with Portsmouth-based contemporary folk band Wood, Wire and Words and their unusually-named song ‘There’s no food in my bowl’!

It's all in the P pod - this week with Claire Vennis and Joff Lacey. Tuesdays at 9, Wednesday's at 7 and always online at Shineradio.uk.

the P pod personalities show - 13 April 2021

Petersfield Museum and Art Gallery is preparing for its Summer exhibition which starts on 29 April.

It’s a double feature: Flora Twort: Draw from Life, an exhibition of her rarely-seen early drawings, and the centenary display of Sir Stanley Spencer’s painting The Poultry Market, Petersfield. This will be the first time this painting has been shown in Petersfield, the town that inspired it. 

Head of Collections and Exhibitions at the Museum and Art Gallery, Louise Weller spoke to Mike Waddington about this forthcoming exhibition, the wider project to digitise Flora Twort's work (having won a grant for this) as well as Stanley Spencer's time in Petersfield after the first world war when he was developing his very distinctive style

Later in the year the South Downs Open, the competition about what the South Downs inspire, will open and details are available on the Museum's website.

New season at the Museum brings world famous painting to Petersfield

Andy Catto, from Petersfield, makes the trip up to London every Monday as he has been a guide at St Paul's Cathedral for the last two years or so.

On Wednesday 18 March he spoke at two meetings here - the U3A and the Area Historical Society - about St Paul's. 

He told us his talks go further than the tour with photos and stories about the Cathedral and its history.

He spoke to Mike Waddington about his experiences, about Royal Peculiars and where the phrase 'robbing Peter to pay Paul' comes from.
