Stuart Maconie and guests with an eclectic mix of conversation, music and comedy.

Amy Gledhill, David Baddiel, Abigail Cruttenden, Noorruddean Choudry and Fairport Convention co-founder Richard Thompson join Stuart Maconie.

David Baddiel will be forever associated with Fantasy Football and the Three Lions anthem but these days he's a philosopher, children's author and documentary maker. Now he's written a memoir of his north London upbringing - My Family - a true life story that is by turns devastating and hilarious. Hull-born Podcaster and comic Amy Gledill on self-confidence, bin bags and romance, the themes of her upcoming show "Make me look fit on the poster". The actress Abigail Cruttenden is best known for her screen work, on TV in Not Going Out and Sharpe or in films like The Theory of Everything. Now she's appearing on stage as Lady Bracknell in what promises to be a very twenty first century take on Oscar Wilde's classic The Importance of Being Earnest. And Noorruddean Choudry on his book Inshallah United - a deeply universal story of fandom, faith and family - and why he's getting his prayer mat out for the Euros. Plus music from one of the UK's finest singer songwriters - Fairport Convention co-founder Richard Thompson - celebrating his new album Ship to Shore. 

Presented by Stuart Maconie
Produced by Olive Clancy

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
