Music, chat and Holly Johnson

Mark and Stuart present a feast of great music and legendary singer and frontman of 'Frankie Goes To Hollywood,' Holly Johnson, shares his ‘First, Last and Everything’.

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

Today they are joined by legendary singer, songwriter and musician Holly Johnson. The frontman of 'Frankie Goes To Hollywood' shares his ‘First, Last and Everything’ - that’s his first record, the most recent one he's enjoyed and the record that means ‘everything’ to him. Holly also chats about the 40th anniversary of Frankie Goes To Hollywood's 1984 debut album 'Welcome to the Pleasuredome' which included three UK no.1 singles - Relax, Two Tribes and The Power Of Love - and his forthcoming anniversary tour.

Also on the show... 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. With tracks from artists including Edwyn Collins, Kneecap, Gwen Guthrie, Poppy Ajudha, The Sisters Of Mercy, Maribou State and David Bowie.
