Greg James, host of the Radio 1 Breakfast show and self-confessed 'proud radio nerd', uses his access-all-areas pass to the BBC Archives to track down audio gems, using listener requests, overlooked anniversaries and current stories as a springboard into the vast vaults of past programmes.
This week, as a new Batman film hits the cinemas, Greg hunts the Caped Crusader in the archives. He finds Adam West, who recalls acting with a mask for most of the time, a man called Mr Batman, and a bizarre experiment on Blue Peter in 1966.
To celebrate the centenary of Judy Garland's birth, Greg tracks down interviews with the elusive star, and also finds memories of her from her daughter Liza Minnelli.
A hunt for one listener's grandad leads Greg to a programme about stunt performers, and following a query about the soothing voice heard at the start of every edition of Rewinder, he looks into the life of Patricia Driscoll, presenter of Picture Book on Watch With Mother.
And - who's in Greg's envelope? We have the hugely anticipated results of last week's telepathy experiment... but you knew that already.
