Sara Pascoe chooses her final two Tracks of My Years, plus Gary Davies pops in with some big Sounds of the 80s news.

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 BBC Two 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 final two choices are from Jeff Buckley and Emmy the Great.

Plus, Ken's got another round of the legendary PopMaster music quiz and your dedications with today's Love Song. There's also a brand new Record and Album of the Week.
