BBC Radio 2 - Alex Lester, 10/05/2011

Great music and witty chat on the Best Time of the Day Show, perfect for night owls.

Tune in for Alex's unique take on life interspersed with a great selection of tunes including Record and Album of the Week plus Lester's and Listener's Libraries.

If you are looking for a reason not to go to sleep, then look no further: the Best Time of the Day show is here to keep you entertained through the night with a great selection of music and Alex's witty chat. It's Day 2 of National Wall Week. That's right; we are paying tribute to the walls in our lives that have caused us pain, embarrassment and more. There's more boasting as we create "Self Slogans" and, new for today, we are mistaking burnt toast crumbs for spiders and the flex of the iron for a snake in "Double Take Mistake". There's more Pause for Thought at 3.20am and another chance to ask that question that's always troubled you in the 4.15 Confusion Harem.

There's another track from Album of the Week by Kate Bush, Record of the Week by Wonderland, Lester's Library tracks are the new one from Journey and an oldie from Reverend Gary Davis, plus one of your selections from the Listener's Library from The Scaffold.

Beware: the Drums of Pun or the Mallet of Stupidity could go off at any time!

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.

Radio 2: Amazing music. Played by an amazing line-up. The home of great music, entertainment and documentaries
