Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie present a feast of great music and chat for weekend breakfast.

Today, to mark the 75th anniversary of Scrabble, Mark and Stuart play a selection of word game-related tunes and hear from listeners about their word game experiences.

With 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.

Plus a finely balanced blend of new and old music, setting you up for a Sunday.
