With Professor Brian Cox and Sinead O'Connor

Shaun talks to Irish singer-songwriter Sinead O'Connor, plus Professor Brian Cox joins him once more for his weekly science chat.

Wednesday sees Professor Brian Cox on the show for his weekly science chat.

Brian is a TV presenter, professor, particle physicist and Royal Society University Research Fellow who is currently working at CERN. He's also in charge of single-handedly making science cool.

Shaun, on the other hand, is in charge of pure silliness and a soundtrack of superb tracks, both old and new, to help you kick out the jams!

Plus, singer Sinead O'Connor chats to Shaun about life, her latest album 'How about I Be Me (And you Be You)?' and the new single '4th and Vine'.

An Irish singer-songwriter, Sinead rose to fame in the late 1980s with her debut album 'The Lion and the Cobra'. O'Connor achieved worldwide success in 1990 with a cover of Prince's song "Nothing Compares 2 U". Since then, while maintaining her singing career, she has occasionally encountered controversy, partly due to her statements and gestures - such as her ordination as a priest despite being a woman with a Roman Catholic background - and her strongly expressed views on organised religion, and women's and children's rights.
