Comedian John Robins, Jo Caulfield, the Bay City Rollers in Session, and Tuesday Review.

Janice Forsyth presents and is joined by comedian John Robins, Jo Caulfield on her memoir, and exclusive from the Bay City Rollers Live in Session, and Tuesday Review.

Janice presents from the studio and she has a Live acoustic session and exclusive announcement from The Bay City Rollers.

Comedian John Robins drops by to talk about his not one but two daily shows at the Edinburgh Fringe.

Comedian Jo Caulfield discusses her book, The Funny Thing About Death, about the love between her and her sister Annie: Six years ago, Jo was about to go on stage when she found out that Annie had cancer. Not the best way to start a nationwide comedy tour, but what transpired was a cathartic journey for both sisters as they revisited their childhood and adolescence.  

And in our regular Tuesday Review slot we look at PainKiller, a drama starring Matthew Broderick about how the creation and marketing of a new prescription drug called OxyContin in the 1990s unleashed an epidemic of addiction in America; hen-weekend-from-hell-based sitcom Henpocalypse, and series 2 of Annika, a police drama starring Nicola Walker as the head of Glasgow’s fictional Marine Homicide Unit, with reviewers Jodie McCallum and Gayle Anderson.
