Bette Midler & Sarah Beeny joined Graham

A repetitive sister, an annoying dance teacher and micro pigs all featured this week, plus chatting in the studio were 'The Divine Miss M' Bette Midler & sultry Sarah Beeny.

The Divine Miss M, Bette Midler dropped by this week and chatted about her latest album as well as marvelling at the level of pig-farming in the UK, while property guru Sarah Beeny revealed the X-rated arguments that went on when the cameras weren't rolling on her new TV show.

Nigel in Weymouth chose this week's 'I Can't Believe It's Not Better' song which was The Nolans' 'Don't Love Me Too Hard', and Verity Brown in Haywards Heath picked Leo Sayer's 'Moonlighting' as the latest 'Tune with a Tale'.

In another thrilling instalment of 'Grill Graham' Cindy in Bath despaired about her sister telling her the same story on the phone every night, that's Cindy in Bath's sister telling Cindy the same story every night, while Tim in Birmingham sought advice on dealing with the dance teacher who was driving him crazy.
