A Dinosaur special: Music, chat and Jurassic Park at 30

Stuart hosts a dinosaur special to mark the 30th anniversary of the film Jurassic Park. With a selection of dinosaur-related tracks and chat.

Stuart Maconie presents a feast of great music and chat for weekend breakfast

Today he spares no expense and hosts a dinosaur special to mark the 30th anniversary of the film Jurassic Park.

Originally released in June 1993, the Spielberg-directed movie set in a wildlife park of dinosaurs was an immediate box-office hit. With an iconic score by John Williams – and starring Jeff Goldblum, Sam Neill, Laura Dern and Richard Attenborough – Jurassic Park was lauded for its groundbreaking use of technology and effects and has become a cultural touchstone.

To celebrate, Stuart plays a roarsome selection of dinosaur-related tunes and reflects on the film’s influence. With music from artists including Mattiel, Was (Not Was), Jurassic 5 and T.Rex (of course!)

Plus… 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.
