Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders join Zoe to chat about their latest podcast series.

Legends of comedy Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders chat to Zoe about the return of their chat show podcast series and Jay Flynn is back with another round of his Virtual Quiz.

Beloved comedy partnership Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders tell Zoe about the return of their wildly popular chat show podcast series. The new episodes follow the same format as the debut series and will see the award-winning comedy duo using a theme as a jumping off point to swap their favourite anecdotes, memories, gossip and opinions on everything – from pets to live tour experiences and bucket lists. Dawn and Jennifer first met in the 1970s at the Central School of Speech and Drama in London while studying on a drama teachers' course. In 1987, French and Saunders created their eponymous sketch show, which carried over six series and nine specials until 2005, with compilations of previous material appearing until 2017.

Plus Jay Flynn returns with another round of his Virtual Radio Quiz where he tests the team on their general knowledge to see who comes out on top.

Along with Adam on news, Richie Anderson 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 a Pause For Thought from Sheridan Voysey and listeners on the line as Zoe entertains the nation with fun for the family!

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
