Acclaimed actor Suranne Jones chooses her final two songs in Tracks of My Years. Plus there's the mid-morning music quiz Ten To The Top.

Bafta winning actor Suranne Jones chooses her final two songs in this week’s Tracks of My Years.

Suranne gained initial fame for her role as Karen McDonald in "Coronation Street" twice winning the NTA Best Actress award. Her break-out role was as police killer Ruth Slater in Sally Wainwright’s critically-acclaimed Unforgiven, since then she’s become known for her many diverse roles in televised dramas.

She starred in critically acclaimed series like "Doctor Foster" earning a BAFTA for her portrayal of Gemma Foster, Anne Lister in the ground-breaking Gentleman Jack as well as "Scott & Bailey", and "Save Me". Plus a memorable guest role in "Doctor Who".

Suranne will be reprising her role as detective Amy Silva in the edge of the seat drama and Emmy-winning series ‘vigil’ with the third series announced earlier this year and she’s back on our screens as the British Prime minister in the political thriller Netflix drama HOSTAGE.

Plus there's the mid-morning music quiz Ten To The Top, a trip in to the BBC Archive with Vernon's Vault, and the Record and Album of The Week.
