About this episode

This episode covers local news, weather updates, gardening tips, football reactions, and a segment on puppy training.

In this week’s edition we have: All the latest from Beacon with Muhammed and Helen. From the fifties to the fifteen hundreds, and from our roads to our skies, we have some fascinating news, nostalgia and information from across the Black Country. There’s all the reaction to the weekend’s FA Cup football action for both Wolves and West Brom. We’ve had a typical cold snap of sun, sleet and even snow over the past week! What whirls of weather will Meena bring us in this week’s forecast? You’ll have to be as sharp as the showers for the quiz, as we have an aptly themed weather station audio-descriptive I-Spy challenge from Soundings Contributor Lindsay. Our gardening experts at MK Pulse magazine, provide all the hints and tips on what to do in the garden in February. And with thanks to Guide Dogs and St Albans & District Talking News, we introduce Episode 5 of Puppy Academy, a monthly series following Charlotte the trainer as she begins the journey with her latest puppy recruit Buster. Kind Regards
