Special guests were James Blunt and Tamsin Greig

Star of Episodes and The Archers Tamsin Greig pops by this week, and she's joined on the show by pop's nicest man James Blunt. And if you've ever wondered about egg storage...

Graham was joined on the show this week by James Blunt who talked about his depressing new single - his words, not ours - and how the accompanying video was "pure death and destruction". On a more positive note, he gave us an exclusive remix of it.

'Episodes' and 'The Archers' star Tamsin Greig also joined us to chat about her new Channel 4 comedy 'Friday Night Dinner', and about being recognised as Debbie Aldridge while being on her knees in a well-known hardware store.

Grill Graham this week featured Rosie's friend Lorraine who was terrified of her boss' dog, and James who was put off by his new boyfriend's excessive tattoos.

Plus Melyssa Wright in Norwich interpreted Billy Joel's 'The Downeaster Alexea' in this week's 'Tune with a Tale' and The Nolans 'Who's Gonna Rock You' was suggested by Carl in Morecambe for 'I Can't Believe It's Not Better'.
