On the 1st anniversary of Ken presenting his show from home thanks to lockdown, Sanjeev Bhaskar - actor, writer and TV host - picks the Tracks of My Years. Sanjeev is best known as the star and co-creator of the hit Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Two Comedies, 'Goodness Gracious Me' and 'The Kumars At No. 42. He's also appeared in the shows 'Mumbai Calling', 'Doctor Who' and 'Porters' as well as starring in the films 'Paddington 2', 'Yesterday' and ' Horrible Histories: The Movie - Rotten Romans'.

Last month saw the return of the fourth series of 'Unforgotten', the popular ITV crime drama where Sanjeev and co-star Nicola Walker reprise their roles as DCI Cassie Stuart and DI Sunny Khan. It first aired in 2015, devised and written by Chris Lang, gaining two BAFTA wins and a further nomination along the way. The new six part series charts a fresh investigation into another emotionally charged cold case murder with the final episode showing next Monday.

Later this year Sanjeev will join the cast of the forthcoming Netflix series ' The Sandman' which is based on author Neil Gaiman's famed fantasy comic book about Morpheus, The Lord of Dreams'.

Sanjeev is married to comedian and actor Meera Syal who was part of the team that created 'Goodness Gracious Me' and played Sanjeev's grandmother, Ummi, in 'The Kumars At No. 42'.

The next two tracks Sanjeev has chosen come from Genesis and David Bowie. Ken also has the daily love song, record and album of the week plus more from the legendary music quiz PopMaster. If you'd like to get in touch email Ken.Bruce@bbc.co.uk
