Peter Curran and guests with an eclectic mix of conversation, music and comedy. Peter is joined by the author, illustrator and journalist Wendy Holden. Her latest novel, Gallery Girl, draws on her love of art and has all the raunch and sparkle of her previous novels. all nine of which were Top 10 sellers! Coast's resident osteoarchaeologist Dr Alice Roberts is the presenter of choice for any BBC television programme featuring the three A's - anthropology, archaeology or anatomy. She talks about her latest series for BBC Two, Digging for Britain, finding the treasures that lie beneath suburban sprawls, roads and shopping malls. Jah Wobble (aka John Wardle) followed quite an idiosyncratic career trajectory in the music industry, from John Lydon's bassist for Public Image Limited to tube driver to dub producer extraordinaire. The man behind such genre bending classics as Chinese and Japanese dub releases a new album 'Welcome to My World' next month and his autobiography 'Memoirs of a Geezer' is out now. Not content with having just the one legendary musician and cockney geezer on the programme, Jo Bunting grabs another for a chin wag. Chas Hodges talks Chas 'n Dave, Rock 'n' Roll... and Allotments! Live music comes from singer songwriter Andreya Triana. Already making waves for her non-conformist vocal style, she performs the title track from her soul, funk and jazz infused debut album 'Lost Where I Belong'. And with Mormon roots and 178 cousins to boot, Utah's bluegrass-country beatnik Emit Bloch performs 'Dorothy' from 'The Dorothy EP' - dedicated to his grandma Dorothy. Producer: Cathie Mahoney.
