Your celebrity puns on a topical theme, who is going to make the team?

Preeya is live through the night live from the Salford Riviera, with a Punderland XI, Midnight Mastermind, Wish You Were There, Yawn Chorus and Shiftfaced.

Preeya has your back during the big hours, live from the Salford Riviera.

Punderland XI is where you test your pun skills. Preeya gives you a theme, you have to come up with celebrity puns on that theme, to fill our team, the Punderland XI. Then Preeya reveals the team in the best 5Live commentator voice. 

Midnight Mastermind is the quiz where you ask the questions and test Preeya on your own specialist subject. She never knows the subject beforehand, and has just one song to revise before facing the questions.

Wish You Were There is your chance to soundtrack a story or situation that Preeya will tell you all about. She wants your suggestions for the perfect song to capture that moment.

Yawn Chorus sees Preeya pick a different theme each week. She picks a song each day related to that theme, and then come Friday it’s your chance to get your song played on Radio 2 in the head-to-head. 

Shiftfaced is for everyone on the nightshift, working hard to keep the country going. Tell Preeya what you’re upto, who you’re with and where you are. Plus, she’s always keen to know what snacks are powering you through!
