Mark Radcliffe presents solo, but that's not all! Or is it? No it's not. His guest today is actress and comedian Tracey Ullman, whose comedy sketch show returns for a new series on BBC One. Tracey's well-known for her appearances on 80s TV sketch shows A Kick Up The Eighties, Three of a Kind and Girls on Top. She's also a singer who, after a chance encounter with the wife of the head of punk label Stiff Records, led to her recording her frst album, You Broke My Heart in 17 Places, in 1983, with her hit single Breakaway saw her singing with a hairbrush as a microphone. In less than two years, Tracey had six songs in the UK Top 100. She emigrated to the US in the late 80s where she starred in her own network show The Tracey Ullman Show. Her sketch comedy show Tracey Ullman's Show is back on BBC One for a second series, taking a tongue-in-cheek look at some of the characters living in - or visiting - the UK....

Plus you can be part of the show! There's Teatime Themetime - 3 brilliant records sent in by one of you brilliant lot - when you can see if you can guess the link before anyone else! Then there's The Chain, where over 6000 records are linked somehow to each other - and for you to choose and then could be on the radio itself, letting us all know your Chain record link! What more could you want? Eh? Eh? *slams door*.
