Liza Tarbuck: Prying Peacocks and Pets’ Bête Noires

Prying Peacocks and Pets’ Bête Noires

BBC Radio 2 - Liza Tarbuck, Prying Peacocks and Pets’ Bête Noires

Does your pet have a nemesis? And what task would you set Liza, if she were to pop round yours? There are big matters to discuss and even bigger tunes.

The question of whether your pet has a nemesis leads to multiple reports of greedy blackbirds, prying peacocks and a seagull staring through a skylight. Other bête noires do feature, but it’s clear that the birds of Britain are watching (and tormenting) our four-legged friends.

Liza has her head torch and tool box at the ready as she asks what tasks you would set if she were to pop round yours. And, with Radio 2’s country music coverage in full swing, we get dressed for a skate on Dolly Parton’s River of Happiness. All served with a selection of songs from Porter Wagoner, Johnny Cash and Billie Jo Spears, as well as some early Bob Marley & The Wailers and recent releases from Biig Piig and The Black Keys.

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
