Eliza Doolittle, Mark Strong, Joe Pasquale and Lesley Joseph
Steve and Tim chat to Hollywood actor Mark Strong, pop starlet Eliza Doolittle and panto stars Lesley Joseph and Joe Pasquale. Plus, more Factoids, Talkies and Non-Stop Oldies.
It's the last Big Show of 2010. On today's show Steve and Tim chat to Hollywood actor Mark Strong, the star of movies like 'Sherlock Holmes' and 'Kick-Ass', they also chat to pop starlet Eliza Doolittle about her meteoric rise to fame this year and talk to panto stars Lesley Joseph and Joe Pasquale (oh yes they do!)
They also bring you three hours of brain-busting festive Factoids and more top-notch Talkie bits where the boys discuss the price of petrol, the rights and wrongs of sending e-cards at Christmas and what two gifts you should never give to work colleagues.
The Non-Stop Oldies are chosen by Allan Harter from Wigan in Lancashire who delights us with a favourite from Jimmy Buffet and a karaoke classic from Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers.
