BBC Radio 6 Music - Radcliffe and Maconie, Neil Hannon

Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie are joined by Neil Hannon of The Divine Comedy.

Mark Radcliffe & Stuart Maconie's guest today is the creator and front man of the chamber pop group The Divine Comedy, Neil Hannon. He wrote the theme tunes for Graham Linehan sitcoms Father Ted and The IT Crowd, as well as 6Music favourites, The National Express and Something for the Weekend. He's recently sung at the BBC Proms (the David Bowie Late-Night Prom, covering Bowie's Station to Station alongside Amanda Palmer and Villagers' Conor o'Brien), and he's here to talk about his brand new album.

As well as this, there's the Chain, an ear-bothering array of splendid tunes and your chance for office victory by getting the link in the three records of Teatime Themetime before anyone in Accounts or HR.
