Alex Lester - 26/08/2010

Alex is here to keep you entertained with his unique brand of witty chat accompanied by a great selection of tunes. It is Day 4 of National Curse Week, so cover your ears if you are offended by curses as "bollards" and "oh hat!" There are more suggestions from Alex's revolutionary film studio which remakes Hollywood classics as Brit-flicks: new titles include "The Maltese Falcon" update, "The Maltby Budgie," and the "Thelma and Louise" re-make, "Sharon and Tracy". New for today, Funella Scales: our new rating systems for anything and everything. Plus, meet the latest batch of newcomers in the 4.15 One-Off Canteen and Pause for Thought at 3.20a.m. On the music front, there are tracks by Gregory Isaacs and Eleanor McEvoy from Lester's Library, and one by Joe Satriani from the Listener's Library. You can hear another track from Album of the Week by Goo Goo Dolls and Record of the Week by KT Tunstall. Nobody else, nowhere else.
