Desmond shares good tunes on the theme of Washing: Keep it clean. Plus a tribute to Val Doonican.

Desmond shares good tunes, some unexpected ones and a few you may never have heard before from the worlds of classical music, pop standards, jazz , shows and films. All served with a sprinkling of interpretations from modern artistes who dig into the music of yesterday to make the 'music go 'round' today. This week he sorts through his personal record collection for songs and music related to the theme of "Washing!" Keep it clean. Plus, Desmond revisits an interview with Val Doonican from nine years ago as he remembers the Irish entertainer who died earlier this month, aged 88.
