Matthew and Penny are also joined by Liam Mower who was London's first 'Billy Elliot' and the youngest person ever to win an Olivier Award, and stars in Nutcracker!
Author Mark Haywood tells us about his new book Queen: On Camera, Off Guard which is a collection of behind-the-scenes photography, stories and insider insight into one of the greatest bands in the world. Mark is an established collector of music and popular culture memorabilia, and has managed to amass a large collection of images of Queen.
Theatre legend Peter Polycarpou talks about his one night only concert in London in which he celebrates the songs of his life. Peter has had an incredible career: a member of the original company in Les Miserables, creating the role of John in Miss Saigon, Ali Hakim in Oklahoma! with Hugh Jackman, Daniel in Imagine This, Phil in Love Story, The Phantom in The Phantom of the Opera and Chris Theodopolopodous in TV's Birds of a Feather. Most recently he has been appearing as the Beadle in the Chichester Festival Theatre Production of Sweeny Todd alongside Michael Ball and Imelda Staunton, which is due to transfer to the West End in 2012.
