Jarvis Cocker is to present a new factual series on BBC Radio 4 starting next month. It will explore what Britons get up to during the hours of darkness. According to Jarvis, 'Wireless Nights' is "a nocturnal exploration of the human condition".

The BBC website reports that the first programme will feature: "a pub lock-in, a lonely prisoner at Wormwood Scrubs and a drunk who spends the night in an empty building."

There will be four half-hour programmes, starting on 5th April at 11pm.
