I am concerned about my wardrobe today. Yesterday was ridiculous with all the wrong choices being taken together. If I had realised it was going to rain all day, I would have worn a coat and not worn suede shoes. My trudge from Leicester Square to Radio 2 was that of a beaten man. There are only so many shops with awnings you can walk under, only so many recriminatory stares you can take. 'Look at him with his wrong jacket/shoe combo. Wasn't he in The Bill?' That kind of thing.

Anyway, today I have to dress for Dame Judy Dench. She is the star of new movie 'Philomena' with Steve Coogan and she-and it-is sensational. But these old jeans just won't do. It's like an audience with the Queen-I feel that I need to get it right. My Nashville t-shirt might be a bit worn, my 'One Year Out' t-shirt maybe too casual. Oh the pressure.

Nigel Barden is always dressed the same. Wild hippy/Hawaiian is the best description. Today he runs in with Spicy Winter Couscous With Pumpkin with, he is excited to report, features 3 different pumpkins. And oldies? Well how can you ignore the YETI/BIG FOOT/ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN story? The Yeti may well exist; tests on DNA hair samples apparently provide a match with an ancient polar bear from Norway from a time when they were very similar to brown bears. Yeti oldies? Lets try...

Have a storming and success-strewn Thursday, see you after 5
