Don Black and Go West

Ryan Tubridy makes a welcome return to Saturday mornings. His guests this week are Go West and award-winning lyricist Don Black. Including a brand new radio quiz.

Ryan Tubridy brings a brand new quiz to Radio 2 - "The Battle Of The Fans" - when 2 of our listeners will have to answer 3 questions each about their favourite bands. Today's battle is between The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. Which camp were you in? To take part, phone lines open from 10am on Saturday morning. Ryan is joined by multi-award winning lyricist whose work includes Diamonds Are Forever, Sunset Boulevard, Born Free, Ben, To Sir With Love and Aspects Of Love. He is about to collaborate once more with Andrew Lloyd Webber on a new musical in London's West End - is being honoured with a Special Concert in The Royal Festival Hall - and launches a new 13-part series here on Radio 2 this Sunday. He is also joined by Peter Cox and Richard Drummie, better known as Go West, who are celebrating 25 years together.
