I was away over the weekend and missed the show but I listened to it today on line and it is very good. If you go onto the B.B.C. web site and click on the Radio tab at the top, then click on Radio 2 on the left hand side. When this page comes up, there is a section on the right hand side called "Listen Again" and you will find it there. You will have to be quick as these only usually stay on there for a week from the broadcast date. Click on and enjoy!!!
