BBC Radio 4 - Saturday Live, Rose Matafeo

Actor Nathaniel Hall and the Inheritance Tracks of Annie Nightingale.

Comedian and actor Rose Matafeo, quantum chemist Magnus Hanson-Heine, actor and HIV activist Nathaniel Hall and boxer Nicola Barke.

Nikki Bedi and Richard Coles are joined by Rose Matafeo, comedian and star of BBC Three’s romantic comedy, Starstruck, who grew up in New Zealand and did her first stand up gig as a teenager.   
Magnus Hanson-Heine will be telling us what it was like growing up in a house with a model shark on its roof in Oxford. 
Nathaniel Hall kept a secret from his family for fifteen years – that he was HIV positive, after his first sexual experience.
And boxer Nicola Barke, aka The Burmese Python, on overcoming a sleeping disorder to become a world Taekwondo champion and kickboxer.  
Plus the Inheritance Tracks of the DJ Annie Nightingale CBE, who chooses Many A New Day from Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Oklahoma and Three Little Birds by Bob Marley and The Wailers.
And your thank you.

Producer: Annette Wells

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
