Rick Astley is Back! 

He will be talking to Janice about his career and discussing both his latest single - Listen Tomorrow - and new album Beautiful Life (out July 20th)

We'll have a brand new single of the week and the bestselling historical fiction author of The Paris Wife, Paula McLain will be discussing her new novel, LOVE AND RUIN which explores the passionate love story of Ernest Hemingway and his wife Martha Gellhorn, to whom he dedicated For Whom the Bell Tolls, set against the backdrop of the impending Second World War.,

The fabulous Colonel Mustard and the Dijon 5 will be in the studio too - one of the founders of the ever-growing 'Yellow Movement' - a music collective spreading a positive message of peace, love, and understanding over the last 10 years! They will discuss the new release of Peace, Love & Mustard - a fan-favourite and affectionately known as the band's theme song. Its release marks the start of an incredible year for these fun-loving genre-hoppers!

All that and 'The White Stag Adventure, written by Rennie McOwan - a favourite novel of children in the 1980's, it has been in constant print since it was first published over 30 years ago. It was adapted into a BBC Radio Scotland play and a recording of this, together with an annotated script and cast list, have been discovered by the author's family in his archives. It is the only known recording to have survived 

Don't Miss it!
