Birdsong with Lucy Lapwing and Brindley Sherratt's Inheritance Tracks.

Michelin starred chef Angela Hartnett, top DJ 'Fat' Tony, self taught birdsong expert Lucy 'Lapwing' Hodson, Carlo Ancelotti on parmesan cheese and Brindley Sherratt.

Nikki Bedi and Mobeen Azhar are joined by DJ Fat Tony, who first found fame in the 80s and has played for everyone from Prince and Madonna to Royalty.  After 28 years of hedonism, Tony found himself homeless and dying from addiction but he’s now over 15 years sober, in demand as a DJ and working to help others. 

We also have Angela Hartnett MBE, the Michelin starred chef who's written cookbooks, judged on BBC’s Best Home Cook and a has passion for good, honest food with the best ingredients possible.

Football manager and former player Carlo Ancelotti has navigated Real Madrid to the face Liverpool in the Champions League final tonight.  So what’s his secret?

Spring is in the air and so is birdsong.  But how many of us know what we are listening to?  We are joined by self taught birdsong expert Lucy “lapwing” Hodson who set up youtube tutorials in lockdown, she also makes props for Springwatch and knows something about Larks.  She joins us. 

Opera singer Brindley Sherratt chooses his Inheritance Tracks: Beethoven: Fidelio, Mir ist so wunderbar and The Carpenters: We’ve Only Just Begun (photo credit Gerard Collett). And your Thank you.
