Hospitals and Horticulture - Monty Don and Georgia Taylor guested with Graham

Casualty's Georgia Taylor and gardening guru Monty Don dropped in to chat to Graham on an edition of the show that also featured a Eurovision exclusive and thieving neighbours.

Gardening guru Monty Don and Casualty star Georgia Taylor were Graham's guests in a week where thieving neighbours, bead fairs and a Eurovision exclusive also featured.

Monty revealed his showbiz past involving Boy George, Princess Diana and Top of the Tops, while Georgia reminisced about dodgy night clubs and skinny indie guitarists.

In 'Grill Graham' this week our genial host, along with Maria and the Great British Public, offered advice to Jessica, who was Sleepless in Redditch, and to Karen, South London's accidental book thief.

Ali Fairclough in Liverpool suggested our latest 'I Can't Believe It's Not Better' track - the 1982 one-hit wonder 'I've Never Been to Me' by Charlene. And 'Tune with a Tale' came courtesy of Rob Brown, who interpreted Michelle Shocked's 'Anchorage'.
