Ken Bruce: The Love Song and Sara Pascoe

The Love Song and Sara Pascoe

BBC Radio 2 - Ken Bruce, The Love Song and Sara Pascoe

Sara Pascoe - comedian and Great British Sewing Bee host - chooses her Tracks of My Years.

Sara Pascoe - comedian, writer, actor and host of BBC One's The Great British Sewing Bee - chooses her Tracks of My Years. Plus, there's PopMaster and your messages in The Love Song.

Sara Pascoe is Ken's special guest all this week, picking ten songs that soundtrack her life in Tracks of My Years.

A highly acclaimed comedian, writer, and actor, Sara wrote and starred in her recent BBC Two sitcom Out Of Her Mind, and is the host of BBC Two’s The Great British Sewing Bee, BBC’s Last Woman On Earth, Dave’s Comedians Giving Lectures and Comedy Central’s Guessable.

Sara has also hosted Live at the Apollo, and appeared on a host of other best-loved TV shows including Mock the Week, Have I Got News for You?, QI, Would I Lie to You? and 8 out of 10 Cats.

As a writer, Sara's second book, Sex Power Money, was a Sunday Times bestseller, and resulted in a successful podcast spin-off.

Sara’s last country wide stand-up tour, LadsLadsLads sold every single Edinburgh Fringe ticket before the festival had started, and culminated in two shows at the London Palladium, which was also filmed for the BBCTwo  stand-up special, Sara Pascoe: LadsLadsLads.

Since then things have most certainly changed for Sara - from contemplating the positive aspects of self-imposed celibacy in LadsLadsLads, Success Story finds Sara a few years later happily married with a beautiful baby son. The show will see Sara examine what it is to be successful, how we define it and how it feels when what we want eludes us.

Sara's next two choices are from Michael Bolton and Take That.

Plus, Ken's got another round of the legendary PopMaster music quiz at 10:30. There's also a brand new Record and Album of the Week, and your dedications in The Love Song at 10:15.
