Synopsis
Guy welcomes you into his home for two hours of music and merriment oh .. and some lasagne.
He's chosen for his theme this week tunes that have great characters in them proffering advice, in tribute to the wonderful J D Salinger who died recently.
He'll have an interruption from the Beckapedia and of course THE finest feature ever created .. That Was The Sky At Night The Week That Was ... plus The Gallery. Rather splendidly he's got one of Whoopi Goldberg's Desert Island Disc Tunes too.
