Trumpeters Potters Poets and Dylans

Guy celebrates Dennis Potter's birthday, Bob Dylan's brilliance and morphing into Manilow - yes Barry.

Guy celebrates Dennis Potter's birthday, Bob Dylan's brilliance and morphing into Manilow - yes Barry.

There's a Ritchie - Benson segue for you 80's fans, our Poet Laureate choses a song by Broadcast and Beckapedia (Guy's sister) digs out some wonderful archive clips - Robert Redford talking journalistic integrity, the inspiration for the The Wizard of Oz and why chickens are laying brown eggs.

Oh and it's Dennis Potter's Birthday - significance enclosed in the show.

So a crazy eclectic show today which includes music from Laura Groves, Beth Orton, Talk Talk and Peter Gabriel.
