Can’t Wait to Hey! Ba-Ba-Re-Bop

Incidents of rogue shopping are on the rise, and a 30-year-old love letter introduces a catchy new euphemism.

On Lussi Night, there are several reports of rogue shopping, not least Debbie from Dawlish, who has fallen in with the cheesemongers. Elsewhere, Josh Widdicombe is sticking his beak into a listener’s cheese dream, and a 30-year-old love letter introduces a catchy new euphemism.

The playlist includes an invite to get down with KC & The Sunshine Band, there's a Verve Records double featuring Jimmy Smith and Blossom Dearie, a comeback hit from Shirley Bassey, and a favourite tune from The Beat, which gets Liza dancing her headphones into a twist.

To listen to the show on most smart speakers, say: “Ask BBC Sounds to play Liza Tarbuck".

Produced by Spiritland Productions for BBC Radio 2.
