Wake up and embrace the day with Zoe Ball and the team. Maxine Peake discusses starring in 'Fanny Lye Deliver'd' and Talking Heads plus the QI Elves are back with The Why Workshop.

Wake up and embrace the day with Zoe Ball! Maxine Peake calls in to talk about starring in the film Fanny Lye Deliver'd and Alan Bennett's BBC series Talking Heads.

It’s The Why Workshop, and Zoe quizzes the QI Elves with more wonders and ponders, including your questions about Pluto and whether or not animals have tastebuds!

Plus we get a lesson in bee behaviour from Master Bee Keeper Venetia Rist. She tackles the big hayfever and local honey myth as well as explaining how and why they swarm.

With the team of Clare Runacres and Richie Anderson, 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 a Pause For Thought from the Reverend Matt Woodcock and listeners on the line as Zoe entertains the nation with fun for the family!

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
