A magical giraffe, a mysterious ghost taxi and a deadly encounter with a restaurant critic all feature in this week's Upload.

Bristol creative Brook Tate's children's musical My Great Giraffe is a colourful adventure packed with storytelling, music and imagination. He performed it live in session for the BBC.

Yate storyteller Simon Entwistle shares a modern ghost tale with a supernatural twist, Devizes writer J.P. Paradise serves up darkly comic audio drama in Revenge, where the death of a renowned restaurant critic prompts some awkward questions.

There's also poetry from Somerset's Rachel Speed, inspired by debates around disposable barbecues, and Bristol writer Emily Shields explores longing, possibility and self-expression in her thoughtful poem Fancy.
