麻豆约拍

Clive Anderson and guests with an eclectic mix of conversation, music and comedy.

Clive is joined by television's longest-serving news broadcaster, Peter Sissons. His school days were spent with John Lennon, George Harrison and Paul McCartney. His career as a war correspondent was cut short by gunshot wounds to his legs in Nigeria which meant more studio based work presenting for Channel 4 news, ITN and the 麻豆约拍. He retired to write his memoir 'When One Door Closes' so he's ready to tell us what he really thinks about the state of the media, global affairs and the 麻豆约拍.

Jon Culshaw's consumate impressions of Sir Patrick Moore will come in handy as he co-presents the seven hundredth edition of The Sky at Night. The impressionist and dead ringer star talks to Clive about being an amateur astronomer and what we can expect from this birthday edition of one of the 麻豆约拍's longest running programmes.

Roland Rivron's autobiography is filled with drunken binges, death defying escapades, burst celebrity egos and occasional bouts of nudity. That's why it's entitled 'What The **** Did I Do Last Night'.

Open Book and Gardener's World collide as Arthur Smith talks to Mark Crick about his latest literary pastiche. He's already done cookery with Kafka's Soup and and DIY in Sartre's Sink, now twelve great authors put down their pens and pick up their spades to dig up botanical tips in 'Machiavelli's Lawn'.

Plus music from Nostalgia 77 as producer Benedic Lamdin seven piece jazz, soul, blues and folk collective perform a couple of tracks live in the Loose Ends studio.

Producer: Cathie Mahoney.
