Dame Edna Everage gives Janice's new arts, culture and music show her blessing as she talks about her fantastic farewell tour, whilst giving her some romantic advice.

Janice interviews the man responsible for discovering the Undertones and prominent figure in the Belfast punk music scene Terri Hooley and the man who portrays him in the film Good Vibrations, Richard Dormer.

Record shop founder and former manager of Simple Minds Bruce Findlay joins Janice to talk about the film Good Vibrations, his personal encounters with Terri Hooley and time spent in the shop which refused to close throughout the Troubles in Belfast, his own experiences of the alternative music scene at the height of popularity for record shops and whether he sees a place for them today.

Arts writer Christopher Andreae has put together a new book called 'Joan Eardley' with never before published pictures and letters from the Scottish artist known for her work depicting Glasgow's slums and sea scapes of Catterline In North East Scotland which was her second home, to coincide with the 50th anniversary of her death and an exhibition of her work in Edinburgh. He joins Janice to discuss why he's decided to bring the artist's private correspondence to the public.

Gary McNair tells Janice all about his new project exploring stand up comedy, 'Donald Robertson is not a Stand-up Comedian', which opens the Behaviour Festival and talks about his intriguing Chuckle Hut.
