Something I did not have on my radio bingo card this year was that radio would give me a new appreciation of the silent art of mime. Still, that’s what happened when I listened to Archive on 4: The Art of Silence (Radio 4). This was one of those unforgettable radio programmes that takes a subject that you thought you knew and opens it up, like unfolding a secret treasure map, revealing routes and vistas within it that you’d never known before.
