Manx Radio's weekly programme looking at Manx life from a different angle, exploring the historical, social, linguistic and academic issues, as well as giving a regular taste of the best of Manx music.
We're visiting pantoland again with the Marown Youth and Community Players' production of 'Rapunzel'. We hear from Producer Alison Lodge and cast members Andrew Willoughby and Gill Bowers.
And Joyce Crook tells us about 'The Sleeping Beauty' which is being presented by the Port St Mary Cabaret Party.
The Manx Branch of the Celtic Congress has launched a project to encourage people to write a short-story in Manx of 600-1,000 words to celebrate the 160th anniversary of the birth of Sophia Morrison. Committee member Sandra Caley explains about the background to that. And we again hear recordings from 1906 made on the Edison Phonograph Sophia Morrison bought for The Manx Language Society.
