Nigel brings in a stew of Asparagus, Tomato and Bacon for Foody Thursday

BBC Radio 2 - Simon Mayo Drivetime, Nigel brings in a stew of Asparagus, Tomato and Bacon for Foody Thursday

Jeremy Paxman oldies, Maurice Hamilton on Ayrton Senna's legacy and a Dragon Confession.

Jeremy Paxman oldies, Maurice Hamilton on Ayrton Senna's legacy and an belated answer to our Homework question about the history of time.

Nigel cooked up another delicious dish (recipe below). Our Confession was a case of dragon duplicity.

Matt spoke to veteran journalist Maurice Hamilton about the legacy of Ayrton Senna. And Rebecca spoke to Roger Harding from Shelter about house price rises and Rahul Sharma about supermarket price cuts.

Rebecca won the quiz; Oldies were dedicated to Jeremy Paxman leaving Newsnight; and we eventually got an answer to yesterday's Homework question about the history of time. We almost understood it too!

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
