Whistle while you work...

Simon Mayo|09:31 UK time, Wednesday, 3 February 2010

My favourite whistle was the one Richard Briers always did in "The Good Life". It was more like a bird call really and certainly didn't sound like any tune I recognised. I have always envied people who could whistle a fine tune, so we'll play a few of your suggestions from 5. And lets include tin whistles, kazoos etc just to widen the field somewhat.

Live music today from Corinne Bailey Rae who has a new album out called "The Sea". She has a great soulful voice and it's good to have her back. Her husband died 2 years ago but his influence is clear in the lyrics of the songs and the album is dedicated to him. Corinne and band will be in after 6.

And if you can catch Mike Harding's show tonight - listen out for Martin Simpson, Lau and a great closing 'I Am a Man of Constant Sorrow'.

And now, washing up, hoovering and then Vinnie Jones new book on tough coppers. All equally fun.
