Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie present a feast of great music and chat for weekend breakfast.
Today, they celebrate the 50th anniversary of cult children’s TV show ‘Bagpuss.’ Written and narrated by Oliver Postgate with music by Sandra Kerr and John Faulkner, the series first aired on the 12th February 1974 on BBC 1. Mark and Stuart play a selection of tunes from the series and share memories of the much-loved saggy old cloth cat.
Also on the show… a host of quality radio items including ‘The Chain’ – our world-famous list of over 8000 interconnected songs.
There’s also the chance to take part in ‘Tea Time Theme Time’, guessing the link between three top tunes.
Plus a finely balanced blend of new and old music, setting you up for a Sunday. With tracks from artists including Janelle Monae, Radiohead, Gossip, Pink Floyd, Julia Holter, Gong, Sylvester, PJ Harvey and Khruangbin.
