The P pod is taking a summer break so we’re showcasing some of our past P pods over the summer weeks.

This week we’re bringing you a P pod from November the 8th where Joff and Claire had the pleasure to meet with the Petersfield Orchestra.

Taking time out from a busy rehearsal for their November concert, we met with the chairman of the orchestra, as well as the conductor and orchestra leader of this talented local group.

And trumpet soloist Lucy Humphries also joins us for a quick chat about her career and exciting future plans.

You will be pleased to hear Joff left his tuba at home.

James Coutsavlis and Izzy Mckenty are a couple on and off stage, and together they’re taking on a whirlwind cast of characters in Chauntecleer & Pertelotte.

Very loosely inspired by Chaucer’s Nun’s Priest’s Tale, the award-winning comedy involves anthropomorphic chickens, a faithless cockerel, a jilted hen bent on revenge and some decidedly unusual language.

Laura Sheppard talks to James and Izzy about playing multiple characters at breakneck speed, the strange world created by writer Dougie Blaxland and what happens when your co-star is also the person you go home with.

Love, chickens and Chaucer: the couple bringing a ‘beasty babel fable’ to Bordon

For years, she sang along to the Carpenters and imagined she was Karen Carpenter. Now she’s taking their story and music to audiences around the country.

Laura Sheppard chats to the creator and star of Rainy Days, Mondays & Good Old Dreams, Kerry Le Bern, about a lifelong love of the Carpenters, the story behind the show and what she discovered when she started looking beyond those famous songs.

On Saturday 12 September about 600 rubber ducks - sponsored at £5 a time - raced down the River Rother to hundreds of spectators’ cheers at the Annual Trotton Duck Race and Fete. 

Simon and Neil are co-chairs of the organising team of 70, who tell us what its about and the causes it supports.

Amidst the festivities we hear from the ever popular Donut Tree, children's coconut shy, cake stall (though sadly there is no interview with the Egg Chucking team...)

We also hear from Eco Rother Action who conduct water testing along the Rother; events like this, they say, helps raise the importance of volunteer action on water quality.

But the day belonged to the crowds cheering their ducks over the course.
