Wake up and embrace the day with Zoe Ball! Pub landlord Al Murray chats to Zoe about narrating BBC Radio 4's adaptation of Vanity Fair.

It’s The Why Workshop, and Zoe quizzes the QI Elves with more of your wonders and ponders. Today, James Social Elf and Alex Elf answer: why do fish have scales, why are men's and women's buttons on different sides and why you don't sound like how you talk when you sing?

Plus Zoe reveals that Kelsea Ballerini and Westlife will be playing our Festival in a Day in Hyde Park.

Along with Tina Daheley on news, Jules Lang on travel and Mike Williams on sport, Zoe and the team have the best start to your morning. With celeb guests, quizzes, headlines, tunes chosen by listeners and more music than you can shake a glitterball at!

There's also weather with Carol Kirkwood who's live from Southwick House for the anniversary of the D-day landings, Steve Bunce previews the weekend's boxing, a Pause For Thought from Art Historian Dr Jim Harris and listeners on the line as Zoe entertains the nation with fun for the family!

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
