'Shiaght Laa' has begun again, and in the first programme Fiona McArdle is talking about the Virgin Mary, who's also found in the Quran under the name Maryam, as about stone crosses of the middle ages. James Harrison presents a new twist on an old game in 'Jamys Jeheiney'. As well as a lesson for us in 'Goll as Gaccan', Phil Gawne tells us a funny short story written by Colin Jerry. It's an American woman, Flora Galena, who wrote the story heard in a Manx translation in 'Claare ny Gael'. To make a change, we hear a piece from 'Traa dy Liooar' as well, including an interview with Staffan Overgaard of Rushen Heritage Trust.

In Goll as Gaccan, Phil Gawne was spending the afternoon watching motor sport on the television, and he tells us about that. We had a science fantasy in Claare ny Gael, with a story all about smoking. Jamys Jeheiney wasn't broadcast this time, so there wasn't a general knowledge quiz for us this week.

It's Maralyn Crellin who presented 'Shiaght Laa', and she talks about the Maughold Parish Cross, the only parish cross remaining now, and about St Mary. In 'Jamys Jeheiney', James Harrison has prepared 'Feer ny Foalsey' again. We hear a recording of Ned Maddrell in the lesson done by Phil Gawne for 'Goll as Gaccan', and after that we hear a short story. Our story in 'Claare ny Gael' was written originally in English by a Dutch-speaking Belgian, Frank Roger, and translated into Manx for the programme. Finally, from 'Traa dy Liooar', we hear a recording made forty years ago by John Gell, with an excerpt from 'Paradise Lost'.
