Paul O'Grady - 19/12/2010

More quirky music from Paul including the 'All Star Triple', another 'Wish You Were There' track plus a 'Lost TV Theme' - this week it's 'Cheers'. And, if you've mislaid a film, a pub or even a pal, then Paul O'Grady is your man. With his unique voice, observations and wit, the programme is a fun and lively mix of eclectic music and chat that includes Paul's anecdotes from his week. Listener emails and letters - ranging from children to their great-grandparents - play a huge part and Paul deals with them in his own hilarious and sometimes 'Savage' way. Paul's regular features draw heavily on audience interactivity including the 'Dead Pet Slot', shared ironing tips and not forgetting the weekly Thank You's, where Paul recognises those who go that little bit further for someone else. Each week, the Radio 2 playlist gets ditched in favour of Paul's favourite music and he also invites listeners to 'Keep the Faith' with his Northern Soul Triple. There's often a Hi-NRG classic and a 'cocktail hour' offering, complete with a weekly recipe. Oh, and Paul is joined in the studio each week by his pious mouse, Elsie.
