<![CDATA[The hardest thing in life is knowing when it's over. Realising that your 
moment's passed, the mojo's gone, you are now in that terrible zone where 
the harder you try to make yourself relevant, the more it shows how past it 
you are.]]>

<![CDATA[You could almost hear the horror in Rosie's voice. It was a sight that a 
lifetime of broadcasting had clearly never prepared her for. On Saturday 
morning the BBC's former arts correspondent Rosie Millard was reporting for 
Radio 4 on the travails of non&#45;doms (an assignment that, I have to say, 
ranks alongside a feature I once read on the difficulties of being beautiful 
as the piece of journalism least likely ever to be called crusading). The 
report was actually quite absorbing, as various millionaire hedge&#45;fund 
figures lamented the terrible effects on our capital if they are compelled 
to leave. If you have tears, prepare to shed them now.]]>

<![CDATA[It may never have become a natural ice&#45;breaker on the terraces at Ibrox, but 
for a brief period it was the question every modern male had to consider. 
Are you just gay enough? The idea that contemporary masculinity required a 
man to keep in touch with his effeminate side was one of the tropes of our 
times. Whether it was David Beckham in a sarong or Jamie Oliver cooing over 
ceps, male role models had to bust out of the old stereotypes. They 
demonstrated just how comfortable they were in their (carefully moisturised) 
skin by going in for the sort of behaviour their dads would have thought 
positively nancyish, without blushing.]]>

<![CDATA[If even Ed Stourton doesn't get it, there really is a problem. Stourton is not 
just an exceptionally civilised voice on Radio 4, he's also one of 
broadcasting's most thoughtful figures. As well as Today, he occasionally 
fronts Sunday, the religious magazine programme, has written a well&#45;received 
book on Pope John Paul II and presented a fascinating documentary on the 
Arab&#47; Israeli conflict. Which is why it's so troubling that he, of all 
people, missed the point.]]>

<![CDATA[Radio 4 is supposed to be soothing. The familiar rhythms of the daily 
schedule, with Woman's Hour always at ten, reminding you that it's 
time for coffee, and The Archers at two, signalling that lunch is at 
an end, provide fixed points in a turbulent world. But there's one Radio 4 
programme that I find profoundly unsettling &#45; a palpitation&#45;inducing, 
mouth&#45;drying, sweaty&#45;palm&#45;provoking intrusion into my life more disturbing 
even than being interrogated by the Stasi or trapped in a lift with Geoff 
Hoon. Both of those are regular anxiety dreams of mine, but neither gives me 
the fear quite as much as the theme music of this show.]]>
