Chris Percival went along to No. 42 Market Place in Bishop Auckland to meet Gillian Gamble, who spoke about a children's book.

"Brilliant Beasts of Bishop Auckland" has been created by 62 children from Etherley Lane Primary School with help from 3 artists from Cartographie Press.

Bishop FM's Chris Percival went along to Bishop Auckland Methodist Church earlier this week to meet Lucy, Craig and Sandra. The church raised sufficient funds to install a community defibrillator and Chris found out where the idea came from and how the fund raising was done.

The community training course for the safe use of the defibrillator will be held on Monday 14th August 18:00 - 20:00.

If you would like to attend, please call 01388 603142 or email:

Local author Caz Harvey explains how the idea for her new book came about.

The book, "When Kevin Found His Purr" is a heart-warming tale of a human and a cat forming a bond, making bad things better by making good things happen!

This delightful illustrated story tells the tale of a lonely cat, and of a woman, who both needed love. A true story of how hope can come into your life when you most need it! This story will put a smile in any child, or cat lover's, heart.  

Caz spoke to Gary Burgham on Mornings & More.

Bernard has made a return visit to our area to promote his new book, "Miss Perfect".

Here, Bernard fondly reminisces on his time as a Lecturer at Durham University and later as a social worker based in Shildon and Spennymoor.

Bernard has drawn on these memories to produce a story which, according to Mike Amos, is "wry, amusing, perceptive, insightful and greatly entertaining."

Interviewing Bernard was a delight: I hope you enjoy listening again or hearing it for the first time.
