麻豆约拍

Greg James, host of the Radio 1 Breakfast show and self-confessed 'proud radio nerd', uses his access-all-areas pass to the 麻豆约拍 Archives to track down audio gems, using listener requests, overlooked anniversaries and current stories as a springboard into the vast vaults of past programmes.

This week, as the final series of Killing Eve hits TV screens, Greg looks back at the career of its star Jodie Comer, from her first role in a 麻豆约拍 Radio 3 drama aged just 14 to her myriad accents as globetrotting assassin Villanelle.

It's 50 years since David Bowie's extra-terrestrial creation Ziggy Stardust looked down the TV lens on Top of the Pops and influenced the hairstyles, make up and jumpsuits of a generation of young people: Greg looks at some of Bowie's characters and finds out how audiences reacted to the superstar at the time. He also revisits the moment 40 years ago when David Bowie starred in Baal, a play by Bertolt Brecht, on 麻豆约拍 One at the heart of the evening schedule.

It's a big year for Birmingham, leading Greg on an eccentric's tour of the city in which he encounters a coal-powered car, tortoise racing, a topless dress and a man with a pigeon on his head.

Listener requests take him to memories of D-Day, the coronation of Queen Victoria, and the inimitable corpsing of Brian Johnston.
