Peter Doherty is best known as the lead singer with the band The Libertines and his side project Babyshambles. Alongside those bands he has also had time for a solo career and his latest project sees him at his most open lyrically for many years. He tells us about his latest. Also, we hear from indie band The Sherlocks who are looking for a career best in the UK album chart. There is music from the latest collection from Morgan Wallen, plus new hits from Skye Newman, Lola Young and the UK's Eurovision entry from Remember Monday.
