Plus - why football matters so much to Plymouth

A brand-new festival promises fun for all in Exeter, and this week's edition of Devoncast hears all about it.

Wayne McGee is the studio guest, explaining all there is to know about the forthcoming Out There Exeter festival, which promises a packed programme of entertainment including an appearance by Bimini, star of TV’s RuPaul’s Drag Race UK.

New Devon Labour MP Fred Thomas, who won Plymouth Moorview at the July election, delivers his maiden speech in the Commons and tells Devoncast why football matters so much to the city’s young people.

Exeter’s biggest fireworks display is almost on us, and the organisers let us in on some of their backstage preparations, while in South Devon they’re coming up with novel ways of getting rid of abandoned boats.

Devoncast is presented by Guy Henderson and Bradley Gerrard, and is produced by Radio Exe and the Local Democracy Reporting Service.
