    This week our podcasters turn the spotlight on the upcoming election for Devon and Cornwall’s police and crime commissioner.

  • Devoncast - ballot boxes, bottles and be-bop-a-lula

    Devoncast catches an early dose of election fever with not one but two Devon MPs joining the team to talk about a touch of skulduggery and a whole new way of voting.

    We find out how one green bottle could accidentally shed new light on the history of a much-loved Devon landmark.

    And we meet the man who brought rock and roll to Torbay, the inimitable Lionel Digby, as we go along to the premiere of a new film about his pioneer pop-picking days.

    Join Guy Henderson, Paul Nero and Josh Tate as they unpick some more of the county's key stories.
