BBC Radio 4's Open Country explores 'the land between two rivers' - Potter's native country, the Forest of Dean. Felicity Evans begins with context and history of place by talking to local freeminer Rich Daniels (closely involved with securing of the Potter archive for the Forest); and Forest historian, tree expert and Verderer Ian Standing. She then moves onto Joyford where she enters the Potter Family home Spion Kopp for a guided tour from local historian and family friend John Belcher. Bringing its right up to date, Felicity revisits a key scene in Potter's documentary Between Two Rivers by joining a group of local teenagers in a Coleford cafe.


This is a must-listen programme for anyone wanting to know more about one of the driving forces behind Potter's work & career - the Forest of Dean 

BBC Radio 4, 3pm, Tursday 11th September.
