Mark presents the show solo, joined by Russell Howard

Comedian Russell Howard is on the show today alongside Squire Mark Radcliffe.

Comedian Russell Howard is on the show today alongside Squire Mark Radcliffe. Well-known for his 麻豆社 series, Russell Howard's Good News, his early comedy work included a Radio 1 commission to write, sing and perform on the comedy series The Milk Run back in 2004. He's just come back from a world tour, which saw him perform the biggest ever stand-up show in China, play ten consecutive shows at the Royal Albert Hall (this overtook the record of 8 in a row jointly held by Frank Sinatra in the 70s and Barry Manilow in the 90s) and perform runs in the UK, the USA, Canada, Australia, Europe and New Zealand. Whilst he was overseas, a clip from his last stand-up tour went viral with nearly 15 million views in China (with Mandarin subtitles) and 6.5 million views in the UK. Another fact: did you know that in the same year he was an uncredited zombie in the film Shaun Of The Dead? Well you do now.

As well as this, chance your arm at going viral on the Radmac airwaves with the opportunity to be on the wireless by suggesting the next track for The Chain, with nearly SEVEN THOUSAND conjoined records! Huddle round that office DAB speaker with your choice of afternoon beverage to gain victory in today's Teatime Themetime: you the ACTUAL listener get to try and discover the link between 3 records before anyone else. Plus there's another round-up of all the latest goings-on in Music News. Who could ask for anything more?
