With Lester's and Listeners' Libraries, The week's first Half-Time Hooter, and Record and Album of the Week, all on the Best Time Of The Day Show.

More inappropriate laughing stories involving laxatives, breaking wind in church and hearing "The Final Countdown" on hospital radio while having a medical scan. Don't laugh! There is more talking to animals in the thread, Doolittle or Doolally, and there are more hidden horrors unveiled in You Are What You Hide. Find out what Carla did with 12 years-worth of her hubby's diving magazines, which have been stuffed at the bottom of her wardrobe since the collection began. There is another track from The Hollies from our Album of the Week, the brilliant new single by Ben Montague is our Record of the Week, new band Patch William and Robin Hitchcock are selected from Lester's Library, and a 70s Bowie track from Listener's Library. All of this and the first Half-Time Hooter of the Week.
