BBC Radio 2 - Steve Wright in the Afternoon, Neil Morrissey and Jeff Pearce

Steve chats to actor Neil Morrissey and rags to riches businessman Jeff Pearce.

Steve, Tim Smith and Janey Lee Grace Steve chat to actor Neil Morrissey and rags to riches businessman Jeff Pearce, and share more head-scratching Factoids.

Steve, Tim Smith and Janey Lee Grace speak to actor Neil Morrissey about his new one man show where he lays bare his celebrity. The team also chat to businessman Jeff Pearce who very candidly discusses his rags to riches tale of how he made a fortune, lost it, made it back, and did it all when he couldn't read or write. 

As well as today's guests, the team try and out-trivia each other with more brain-busting Factoids including the seven letter word in the English language that contains ten other words without rearranging the letters.

The Talkies include the team discussing Keira Knightley's West End debut and why supermarkets are selling heart shaped vegetables for Valentines Day.

The Oldies are chosen by Gill Chiapponi from Northwood in Middlesex who treats us to some gems from Dire Straits, The Rolling Stones and Ultravox.

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
