Camp As Christmas Special!

Scissor Sister Ana Matronic selects the biggest, most over-the-top disco hits for you to wrap your presents to! Featuring gifts from Ottowan, Bette Midler, Divine and Ethel Merman.

Scissor Sister Ana Matronic selects the biggest, most over-the-top disco hits for you to wrap your last-minute presents to.

This special show features gems from Ottowan, Bette Midler, Divine, Sylvester, Liza Minnelli, Gloria Spencer and Ethel Merman, to name a few! There's also a seasonal 'Wayback Track' that was a Christmas number one.

Two more of Ana's fellow Radio 2 presenters are hiding behind the door at the office Christmas party - which kitsch disco floor fillers have Simon Mayo and Jo Whiley picked to keep the party swinging?

There's also the non-stop Dance Praise mixed by Ms. Matronic with lots of Christmas love, and all her devotion.
