A new national day?

BBC Radio 2 - The Chris Evans Breakfast Show, A new national day?

Chris attempts to add a new national day to our calendar.

Chris attempts to add a new national day to our calendar and Welsh wonder Jacob Bruce gets a fanfare for reciting the poem Yr en d? gwag.

Chris gives a fanfare to well-spoken Welsh star Jacob Bruce who gets 10 out of 10 for brilliantly reciting the poem 'Yr en d? gwag'...

We have a lesson in looking dapper, with our not-so-mystery guest, who tidies things up on the topic of bow-ties; he is the head of Peckham Rye, that's cockney rhyming slang for a tie, David Walker... 

Next, we take a detour to the Top Tenuous and your desperate claims to the fame of Go-Karting in, or very near, Berlin...

And keeping on the theme of driving...that leads us on to our attempt at a new National Day! 

Today's show is dedicated to anyone who likes to glamorise where they live... like Gosport to Gos-Vegas...
And today's show is entitled: you are what you are and you'll do what you do!

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
