Next Monday evening, August 26th, is shaping up to be very interesting on BBC Radio with the highlight being Darkside, an hour-long drama airing at 10pm.

Elsewhere on BBC Radio, they are complementing Darkside with more programming either side of the show. Radio 2 and BBC 6 Music are simulcasting a unique show that will put the audience in control of the music across both networks for two hours, as they collaborate online to pick the tracks. Then, following the broadcast of Darkside, at 11pm, there's another chance to hear the truly fascinating The Record Producers - Pink Floyd Special, which concentrates on the Floyd's music from the late 60s through to the mid-70s, and features David and Nick alongside original multi-track recordings of some of their best work from this period.

Also, on the night of broadcast, visitors to bbc.co.uk/radio2 will be able to watch a specially commissioned animation by Aardman to accompany the drama, creating a unique, immersive audio-visual experience. To give a flavour of this, a teaser trailer has just been released online:
