TV icon Michaela Strachan

Rylan launches his new RY Player feature with TV icon Michaela Strachan, who talks about her life in TV and forthcoming tour Not Just A Wild Ride.

Rylan is back with another fun-packed Saturday afternoon, full of big laughs, great music, and brilliant guests.

He’s joined by TV icon Michael Strachan, celebrating an incredible 40 years in television and chatting about her upcoming tour Not Just A Wild Ride. Also, she is the very first guest to take on Rylan’s brand-new feature The RY Player, revealing her all-time favourite films and TV shows.

Rybiza may be closed until May, but you can still get involved by dropping a track into Rylan’s Noughties Nightclub. Expect guilty pleasures, cheesy classics, and the ultimate throwback bangers – Rylan wants to know your cheesy and favourite song from the noughties to light up the dancefloor.

And don’t miss Couch Potatoes, as two brand-new contestants go head-to-head in our film and TV quiz.

To listen on most smart speakers, just 'BBC Sounds to play Rylan on Saturday.'

Produced by Ora et Labora for BBC Radio 2.
