Matt Lucas and Nadiya Hussain

Chris catches up with Little Britain's Matt Lucas ahead of his Radio 2 programme Much Ado About Comedy and Bake Off champion Nadiya Hussain, who is baking for royalty.

As Radio 2 marks the 400th anniversary since the passing of William Shakespeare, Chris speaks to Little Britain's Matt Lucas ahead of his special Radio 2 programme 'Much Ado About Comedy'. Plus we hear from 2015 Bake Off super star, Nadiya Hussain, who's been appointed as the baker of the Queen's 90th Birthday cake. And we dissolve into a fit of giggles with Vassos after a story in Chris' Paper Review tickles his fancy. Today's Pause for Thought comes from Dr Jim Harris.
