Sir Terry Wogan eases you into your Sunday brunchtime with music and musings.

This week, he catches up with the British actor Hugh Bonneville. Best known for his appearance in Downton Abbey, he has recently been seen heading up Olympic deliverance in the BBC sitcom Twenty Twelve, set around the misadventures of the committee tasked with delivering the 2012 London Olympics.

Terry will also have a stripped back acoustic session from the Grammy nominated jazz and blues singer Melody Gardot. Growing up in Philadelphia, she began taking music lessons at nine and was playing piano in lounges by the time she was sixteen. After being hit by a car at nineteen, music became a key therapeutic element in her lengthy recovery process. Today she is a strong advocate for music therapy as a result. Melody recently performed at the Cheltenham Jazz Festival, and her new album will be released on May 28th.
