Kylie Minogue and Phil Collins

Steve and Tim Smith chat with musician Phil Collins and Aussie superstar Kylie Minogue. Plus more brain-busting Factoids and a ton of toe-tapping tunes.

Pop princess Kylie Minogue turns the tables on Steve and Tim during their interview on this afternoon's show and questions the pair about their unmentionables. Also on today's glittering guest roster - Phil Collins - who reveals why he's unlikely to ever drum again.

In today's fascinating Factoids learn how many steps there are to the very top of the Eiffel Tower, how many Popes there have been and why women spend time and money making their lips as pouty as possible.

In the Talkie bits, Steve and Tim discuss the new series of Strictly, Steve gives us his RADA audition piece and Tim reveals what the most coveted movie gadget of all time is.

This afternoon's Oldies are chosen by Kim Atton from Filey in North Yorkshire, who works in a lab making false teeth. Despite being only 20 years old, she gives us an impressive range of tunes from The Hollies, Ultravox and Louis Armstrong.
