Conversation, music and comedy. Clive Anderson is joined by Ute Lemper, Jack Dee, Jon Holmes and Gustav Temple. Music from Mechanical Bride and Sophie Barker.
Clive Anderson and guests with an eclectic mix of conversation, music and comedy.
Clive is joined by grumpy stand-up and I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue host, Jack Dee. Jack's alter ego, Rick Spleen, a failed comic and serial liar, returns for more trials and tribulations in Lead Balloon.
Ute Lemper's career has seen her in prime roles in Chicago, Cats and Cabaret. She's been on stages in London's West End, Vienna, Paris, Las Vegas and Broadway. As part of this years Bath International Music Festival, Ute Lemper performs Last Tango in Berlin, a homage to Marlene Dietrich, Piazolla, Edith Piaf and Weimar cabaret. To close the festival on Sunday 5 June, there will be a Brecht and Weill Night with performances by Frances Rufelle, Clive Rowe and Roger Lloyd-Pack.
From early roles alongside Ray Winstone in Scum and most notably Jimmy the Mod in Quadrophenia, Phil Daniels has doggedly stuck to his working class roots throughout his 35 year career. More recently he's been in Eastenders and he was also the voice of Blur's 'Parklife'. He talks to Clive about his life encapsulated in his autobiography 'Class Actor'.
What's the difference between a Young Fop and a Dandy? A Cad and a Crusty Old Duffer? Jon Holmes answers these questions and more from the consummately well dressed British Gentleman and founder of Chap Magazine, Gustav Temple.
With music from Brighton's Mechanical Bride, the musical moniker of Lauren Doss who brings her eerie folk pop to Radio 4. She plays Young Gold from her soon to be released debut album Living With Ants.
And from the former vocalist with Zero 7 Sophie Barker, who performs Paradise Lost from her second album, Seagulls.
Producer: Cathie Mahoney.
