BBC Radio Scotland - The Janice Forsyth Show, Pete McLeod; Karen and Katy Koren on the Gilded Balloon legacy & the Tuesday Review

Pete McLeod live in session and Karen Koren on handing the baton over to her daughter Katy

Pete McLeod live in session, Karen Koren on handing over the showbusiness baton to daughter Katy, and another chance to hear Men Behaving Badly writer Simon Nye on his career.

Singer songwriter Pete McLeod joins Janice for a live session.
Gilded Balloon royalty Karen Koren will be on the show with her daughter Katy, talking about passing on the baton and taking over the family business.
Last week we looked at the work of Robert Lorimer in one of our architecture packages. One of his key collaborators was Phoebe Anna Traquair, who was a massive part of the arts and crafts movement in Scotland. This week we'll be focusing on her work, particularly her meticulous decoration of the Mansfield Traquair Centre in Edinburgh (which is open to the public throughout August).
Our Tuesday reviewers Yasmin Sulaiman and Paul Whitelaw will be discussing the new three part programme on BBC 2 'The 80s With Dominic Sandbrook' and Gavin Extence's new novel 'The Empathy Problem'.
Our final half hour will offer listeners another chance to hear 'Men Behaving Badly' writer Simon Nye talk to Janice about his career in comedy in 'Laughed Off the Page'.
