Janice Forsyth talks to Maggie O Farrell, hears from comic Angela Barnes, and has Una Healy live in session!

Janice Forsyth speaks to best-selling author Maggie O Farrell about her latest book, I AM, I AM, I AM: SEVENTEEN BRUSHES WITH DEATH.

She also has live music and conversation with Una Healy: her new single 'Never See Me Cry' out this Friday and the former Saturdays singer is embarking on her first-ever solo tour this summer that will see her play King Tuts on June 19th.

Ahead of her Scottish tour dates for her show FORTITUDE, brilliant stand-up Comedian Angela Barnes (BBC R4's The News Quiz, Mock the Week, host of Newsjack on BBC R4Extra) will be on hand to provide some cracking comedy. 

Actor KEN O HARA will also be in the studio to discuss THE PRICE OF A FISH SUPPER - a sharp unsentimental story of a washed-up ex-fisherman with an alcohol problem: it's also an honest and thought provoking portrayal of the demise of the local fishing industry in Ayrshire and its going on tour to some coastal towns in Scotland.

All that and a brand new Single of The Week from the brilliant Logan's Close.

Don't Miss it!
