| | | | Mitch Benn. This photo is ten years old. | | | The Mitch Benn Music Show is a programme made for BBC 7 that highlights the very best in comic songwriting.
It's presented by Mitch Benn, who listeners will most probably remember from his appearances on Radio 4's The Now Show, Radio 2's It's Been A Bad Week and Jammin', and of course his own series on Radio 4 - Mitch Benn's Crimes Against Music.
Each week Mitch will be joined in the studio by a special guest, for a chat and a song
