Alex Lester - 17/08/2010

It's the best way to keep yourself entertained throughout the night with laugh-out-loud chat and playlist crammed with classic tracks, old and new. National Statistics Week continues with more ridiculous fantasy facts and figures. More odd sightings in response to the question, "what is the strangest thing you did ever see?" In "Second Hand Celebs" we are finding alternative jobs for celebs based on their skills; Jordan and Dolly Parton have both secured posts as road bumps while Cliff Richard is devising a business plan to be a seasonal market trader selling mistletoe and wine. More newcomers are let loose in the 4.15 One-Off Canteen and there is a Pause for Thought with Simon Lole at 3.20am. Lester's Library tracks come from Paul Weller and Ray Charles, the Listener's Library track is by Thunder, plus Record of the Week by Manic Street Preachers and another track from Album of the Week by The Hoosiers.
