Vernon has some big Elvis news to reveal, while singer-songwriter and guitarist Joan Armatrading chooses her penultimate Tracks Of My Years.

Joan Armatrading made her performing debut at her brother’s university when she was 16. Her debut album 'Whatever's For Us' came out in 1972, and since then, she has achieved great success, becoming a three-time Grammy nominee and two-time Brit Award nominee, and in 1996, she received an Ivor Novello Award for Outstanding Contemporary Song Collection.

She was appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 2020 for services to music, charity and equal rights.

Joan is back with a new album, 'How Did This Happen And What Does It Now Mean', which she wrote, produced, programmed and engineered entirely herself.

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
