Alex Lester - 23/08/2010

Fight off those Monday blues by tuning into Alex on The Best Time of the Day Show for a dose of nightowl comedy and fantastic music. This morning sees the start of National Curse Week; own up to your daft radio-friendly curses and hear what makes others curse. More confessions of how we are turning into our parents, and we are re-making Hollywood classics in the U.K.: Bridge on the River Trent and Last Tango in Peckham have hit written all over them! Pause for Thought is back at 3.20 and there are more newcomers allowed into the 4.15 One-Off Canteen. From Lester's Library there is a lesser-known gem from the Rolling Stones, and some mambo from Yma Sumac. Your request in the Listener's Library comes from country star, Mary Stuart. The new Record of the Week is from KT Tunstall, plus a track from the new Album of the Week by Goo Goo Dolls.
