Steve Wright in the Afternoon - Tony Benn, LL Cool J and Danny Wallace

Logo for Steve Wright in the Afternoon - Tony Benn, LL Cool J and Danny Wallace

Steve, Tim and The Old Woman try and out-trivia each other with more brain-busting Factoids including which famous artist once turned up at a gallery in a car full of turnips and which animal has the highest blood pressure. Today the team interview more amazing celebrity guests - humourist and author Danny Wallace, whose book Yes Man was turned into a Hollywood blockbuster starring Jim Carrey; former Labour MP and impressive pipe smoker Tony Benn talks about the book he's written for his grandchildren and rapper turned actor LL Cool J explains why he's ready to take on Shakespeare. Astrologer Claire Petulengro looks into the stars for you as she takes a peek at this week's heavenly positions. Today's Oldies are chosen by June Gibbs from Maidenhead in Berkshire who treats us to a smoochy classic from Boyz II Men and something rather lovely from George Harrison. And in the top-notch Talkies, the team spend some time studying their fingers in a bid to glean some insights into their personalities and they reveal news of the first ever music concert for dogs.
