Including Pause for Thought and the Lester's and Listener's Library music selections.

Ever thought you were alone, threw caution to the wind and released your inner performer...then realised you were being watched all along. Alex relives some of those horrendously embarassing moments. We are on the hunt for people who have objects and possessions that have made cameo appearances on the screen; find out how a towel became more famous than its owner. There is a track from the new album of the week by Sade, the first play of the Record of the Week by Robbie Williams, Lester's Library choices from Ray Charles and Dr. Feelgood, Neil Young is the Listener's Library choice and Pause for Thought features also.
