A Christmas Catch-up With Self Esteem

Guy spins some festive favourites, and Rebecca Lucy Taylor (AKA Self Esteem) comes over with a special Christmas quiz.

Guy Garvey brings his own unique taste to 6 Music, in a special Christmas episode featuring Rebecca Lucy Taylor (AKA Self Esteem).

Rebecca comes over with a special festive quiz, and there's stories from her and Guy's Christmases through the years.

Plus seasonal favourites from the likes of Fleet Foxes, Ryuichi Sakamoto and Tiny Ruins, some not-so-seasonal classics from ABBA and The Modern Lovers, and The Beckapedia celebrates guitarist Vic Flick - who recorded the original James Bond theme.
