Chris Evans welcomes the weekend with a Great Gal Britain extravaganza!

Today, it's all about the girls, as we chat to Lulu, Bonnie Tyler, Alison Moyet, Amy McDonald, and Eliza Doolittle, while also peppering the playlist with the princesses of pop!

We get the very latest on the possibly-pregnant panda, Tian Tian, from Edinburgh Zoo's Iain Valentine.

Birthday girl Eleanor Smith reviews Harry Potter World; Ann Easter delivers today's Pause for Thought.

And, zut alors, we play a game of France/Not France, before tying it all up with a Top Tenuous trip across the English Channel.
