Roy Noble is joined by Catrin Stevens, who has written a book about the Welsh women who joined the world of industry as 'factory girls' after the Second World War.

Join Roy Noble for classic tunes from the 40s and 50s and beyond - as well as your requests picked out of his Golden Postbag .

Roy's special guest is Catrin Stevens, whose book Voices From The Factory Floor tells the story of the thousands of women from around Wales, who in the 30 years after the 2nd World War, joined the world of industry as "factory girls" but whose experiences have rarely been reported.

And Roy's choir of the week is CΓ΄r y Gleision - The Cardiff Blues Choir - which is made up of fans of the city's regional rugby team. The choir's chairman Huw Davies will be chatting to Roy and you can hear a track by the choir.
