"Ah! but there may come a death in the family, as there did soon after I had my green satin bonnet."
George Eliot
For our episode on the theme of Clothes this week, we've got an interview with the illustrious Ms Ruzzak, costume designer and fastidious knitter, and she tells us how much fabric goes into one costume (it's a lot). Tropic Of Clyde is set in a plush haberdashery, and we find out a bit more about the mysterious league of foxes that comes to prominence in the Scottish future. Any ideas for songs other than the beauties we've got for you this week, please post on our blog. Next week is MONEY! We'll make you feel wealthy and corrupt.
