BBC Radio 4 - Bunk Bed, Series 5, With sleepover guest Jane Horrocks

Patrick Marber, Peter Curran and Jane Horrocks talk critically acclaimed nonsense in bed.

Patrick Marber and Peter Curran’s riff in the dark discusses sexy songs, Bowie and caravanning. With Jane Horrocks. From 2018.

Everyone craves a place where their mind and body are not applied to a particular task. The nearest faraway place. 

Somewhere for drifting and lighting upon strange thoughts which don't have to be shooed into context, but which can be followed like balloons escaping onto the air.

Late at night, in the dark and in a bunk bed your tired mind can wander.

Patrick Marber and Peter Curran welcome BAFTA-winning actor Jane Horrocks who is sleeping over on the pull out bed.

Jane discusses the curse of a happy childhood and David Bowie - and also does her impression of a neighing horse that once brought unwanted attention from a stallion. 

"A welcome comfort against the gathering storm clouds" - The Spectator
