Who's Up For Ten To The Top?

Comedy icon Dawn French chooses her Tracks Of My Years all this week with Vernon. Plus there’s Album and Record Of The Week, a dive into Vernon's Vault and more Ten To The Top.

Actress, comedian, and writer Dawn French chooses her 10 favourite songs in this week’s Tracks Of My Years.

Dawn has appeared in a range of TV shows from The Comic Strip to Murder Most Horrid to Jam & Jerusalem, but is probably best known for writing and starring alongside her lifelong friend Jennifer Saunders in French and Saunders, and for playing Geraldine Granger in the The Vicar of Dibley.

Following on from her four Sunday Times bestselling novels, the non-fiction bestseller 'Me You: A Diary,' and a sold out 2022 one-woman show, Dawn is back with a brand new book.

Dawn's next two choices come from The Beatles and the movie version of Oliver!

There'll also be more audio nuggets from the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Archive in Vernon's Vault; there's a new Record and Album Of The Week and it’s a brand new week for the mid-morning music quiz, Ten To The Top.

Whatever you're up to, Vern wants to hear from you - email vernon@bbc.co.uk - and if you’d like to apply to take part in Ten To The Top, the address you need is tentothetop@bbc.co.uk
