Ronan Keating and Nicki Chapman guested - nothing idle about these pop people!

Music reality judge turned TV and radio presenter Nicki Chapman plus singer turned actor Ronan Keating talk to waiter turned actor turned presenter Graham Norton.

In another jam-packed show Graham welcomed to the guest chair Ronan Keating, who chatted about working with Burt Bacharach on his new album, and the music legend's very straight to the point manner!

TV presenter Nicki Chapman also popped in and revealed all about her upcoming Radio 2 debut as well as giving us the gossip on a possible Spice Girls reunion, working with Peter Kay, and the continual grunts of Van Morrison.

In our latest installment of 'Grill Graham', Pip in Stroud was fretting about her neighbours who definitely weren't becoming good friends, while Tracey in Chippenham was looking for advice about how to dress for an internet date.

Another listener with a problem, this time of the musical variety, was Trisha in Dore, who thought it would be a good idea to suggest Diana Ross's 'Old Funky Rolls' for 'I Can't Believe It's Not Better'. Thanks Trisha, thanks a bunch.

And in this week's 'Tune with a Tale' was Tammy Wynette's version of 'No Charge', which is now definitely our favourite song regarding a child's view of accountancy...
