BBC Radio 2 - The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show, Sir David Jason and the QI Elves

Sir David Jason chats to Zoe about his book 'A Del of A Life' and the QI Elves are back.

Sir David Jason talks to Zoe about his new book 'A Del of A Life', written to celebrate his 80th birthday. Plus the QI Elves are back with another Why Workshop.

Sir David Jason, the legendary actor best known for playing Derek 'Del Boy' Trotter in 'Only Fools and Horses', sits down with Zoe to talk about his new book 'A Del Of A Life'. In celebration of his 80th birthday, 'A Del of a Life: Lessons I've Learned' relives David’s extraordinary life and career from over 50 years in entertainment. From a trainee electrician to one of Britain’s most revered and loved actors, he shares heartfelt and hilarious wisdom with readers on subjects ranging from family to work, resilience to ebullience. 

It’s The Why Workshop, and Zoe quizzes the QI Elves with more wonders and ponders, including your questions.

...plus, as part of Radio 2's Grief Conversations, we hear the story of Fraser who set up a Sands United FC team in Dundee after suffering a child bereavement. His closest team was hundreds of miles away so took it upon himself to bring a group of dads together so they could all support each other.

Along with Tina Daheley on news, Richie Anderson on travel and Mike Williams on sport, she 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 daily Pause For Thought and listeners on the line, as Zoe entertains the nation with fun for the family!

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
