BBC Radio 2 - Paul O'Grady, The one where Paul wasn't here because he was in panto...

Featuring some festive cheer, Andy Gibb and Sammy Davis Jr.

All hands on deck! Jodie Prenger sits in for Paul while he's in panto - oh yes he is!

It was all hands on deck as Jodie Prenger sat in for Paul while he's in panto - oh yes he was! She posed for a photo with Santa and played some great music, including a few Christmas songs to help get you in the mood. There were All-Star Triples from the fourth Gibb brother, Andy, and legendary crooner Sammy Davis Jr.
And, instead of a Lost TV Theme Jodie uncovered Channel 4's lost signiture ident from 1982: Four Score composed by David Dundas. To round things off Jodie had a Mystery Year, 1960, and to celebrate she played a song from Peggy Lee, A Christmas Waltz which was recorded in that year.

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
