DURING THE long stretch of Lamacq Live (8pm R1), there's a live set from the exquisite Faithless, while for the serious-minded, "Essential Albums of the Nineties" continues with a look at Nevermind, the grunge masterpiece from Nirvana (right). Steve Lamacq talks to the album's producer Butch Vig, and gauges its influence - according to Noel Gallagher, it's "the only record that's ever got close to sounding like Never Mind the Bollocks.

There's a punkish spirit abroad in Postscript (9.40pm R3), when Patrick Wright tries to counter the predictable noises of contemporary cultural debate by hearing from genuine outsiders. He begins with the Paris-based poet Douglas Oliver.
