Jonny Mugwump of Resonance FM's excellent Exotic Pylon show emails with news of an intriguing radio event happening towards the end of the month, something between a hauntological radio play and A Book At Bedtime. Looks well worth checking out. Each is broadcast at midnight (so you might wanna double check those dates nearer the time to avoid confusion). Here's what he says:

I've curated 8 pieces of weird fiction with sonic backdrops to be broadcast on Resonance 104.4fm from the 25th January to the 1st February that is something of a hauntological dream project. Do tune in as the pieces are absolutely extraordinary and have been recorded specifically for the project and have never been heard before

There is a webpage which is in the process of becoming a fully blown site here
