About this episode
Jane has yet again come to work with a smile on her face (the office heating was on and the canteen was stocked with Cadbury’s Fruit and Nut). Fi’s still off, so Eve props Jane up - they chat Barbara Pym, aliens, bowling with piles, and book translations. Plus, space scientist Dr Maggie Aderin-Pocock discusses her memoir 'Starchild'. Our next book club pick is 'A Town Like Alice' by Nevil Shute. Our most asked about book is called 'The Later Years' by Peter Thornton.
