Wordsworthian.

Prof Brian Cox brings the science, Murray Lachlan Young brings the weekly poem, and Shaun brings a soundtrack that will make your knees tremble, plus some funnies.

Shaun Keaveny takes a rib-tickling satirical romp through the day's news and events, to the perfect morning soundtrack for any music-lover; from northern soul to new folk; rock 'n' roll to indie disco. New tracks from the likes of Gruff Rhys, Battles and The Vaccines delightfully massage your semi-conscious ears, along with the best of the greatest back-catalogues on the planet; be they Ian Dury, Otis Redding, Phylis Dillon and Tom Tom Club.

Prof Brian Cox confirmed that the aliens in the early 1980's TV miniseries V, do not and could not actually exist....phew! And, Murray Lachlan Young wrpas up the week with some wonderfully placed words including a nod to Bob Dylan.
