Nigel’s Odyssey

Available for 21 days

Never mind Christopher Nolan’s much-anticipated film. We welcome a new year with the tale of an epic journey - our patient hero thwarted by a numpty boyfriend - and the next instalment in the adventures of a lunging ex-lifeguard. We head to Great Cockup Fell, in Uldale, for a cathartic howl at the Wolf Moon. The playlist includes the trailblazing Texan Barbara Lynn, a favourite tune from Fountains Of Wayne, the brawny-voiced Big Joe Turner, and a fabulous Dennis Brown track that was recommended to Liza by Bernadette. To make your own suggestion (we're after rare and quality tracks, old and new), e-mail [email protected]. 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.
