BBC Radio 6 Music - Shaun Keaveny, 13/04/2011

Shaun has actor Chris O'Dowd in the studio.

Vampire Weekend to The Velvet Underground? Wonderfully observed northern ramblings? Actor Chris O'Dowd in the studio? Done.

Shaun Keaveny takes a rib-tickling satirical romp through the day's news and events, to the perfect morning soundtrack for any music-lover; from northern soul to new folk; rock 'n' roll to indie disco. New tracks from the likes of Wild Beasts and Florence & The Machine delightfully massage your semi-conscious ears, along with the best of the greatest back-catalogues on the planet; be they The Smiths, The Stones, The Clash or The Fall. 

Guest wise, actors Chris O'Dowd joins Shaun after 9am. Having previously stared in The IT Crowd and Jack Black's Gulliver's Travels and is now starring in The Crimson Petal And The White which goes out on BBC Two. It's a bold, entertaining, intelligent look at sex and sexual politics in Victorian London. 
This provocative and riveting tale tells the story of Sugar (Romola Garai), an alluring, intelligent young prostitute who yearns for a better life away from the brothel she is attached to - run by the contemptible Mrs Castaway (Gillian Anderson). However, things change for her when she meets wealthy businessman William Rackham (Chris O'Dowd). An intelligent tale of love, lust, desire and revenge, it reveals the true sexual politics of Victorian life - in a way never seen before on screen. In the words of the heroine Sugar: "If you dare enter this world, you had better tread carefully.".
