Upshares, Downshares

Here then are all the versions PM has played over the year, from crumhorns to the carillon at York Minster, covering Bee Gees to Bach to Elvis, and featuring some very special versions recorded with the original composer Alexander Faris, playing on solo piano and conducting the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra.

Blind listener takes first bike ride

As it is a leap year, PM asked listeners to take advantage of the extra day and use it as an excuse to do something they had never done before.

Presenter Paddy O'Connell helped listener and charity fundraiser June Bowden, who is blind, take her "Leap for PM", riding a tandem bike for the first time.
