Grant chats to Anna-Campbell Jones and Katie Spiers of SHOTY about the lockdown hit, Bonnie Tyler on her charity single, and there's a quickfire interview with Jane McCarry

Scotland’s Home of the Year judges Anna Campbell-Jones and Katie Spiers will be discussing the joy of nosing around homes from Orkney to East Lothian. 

Greg Jenner, best known as host of Homeschool History, You're Dead to Me and consultant on Horrible Histories, chats to Grant about his book Dead Famous and asks how the role of celebrity has been changing in lockdown.

Grant hears from sports presenter Stuart Cosgrove on EL PRESIDENTE, the new series documenting the scandal that rocked international football.

New music from Bow Anderson and we’ll hear about a new charity single from Welsh rock singer Bonnie Tyler and Lorraine Crosby raising funds for Teenage Cancer Trust after the cancellation of their annual shows at the Royal Albert Hall.

Plus this month’s book group explores I KNOW WHY THE CAGED BIRD SINGS – MAYA ANGELOU’s extraordinary autobiography charting her life in the American South during the 1930s.

In our occasional series when Journalist Paul English puts folk on the spot to answer as many questions about themselves before the buzzer, this week’s guest is actor Jane McCarry.  

As part of our Make A Difference slot, we’ll be hearing from an organisation that is doing wonderful things to support our communities during this crisis.
