Hey Hey, It's the Monkees!

Simon and the team talk to Micky Dolenz and Peter Tork from the Monkees about their upcoming UK tour dates.

Micky Dolenz and Peter Tork from The Monkees talk about their upcoming UK tour dates.

Assembled for a television series in Los Angeles in 1965, The Monkees mix of pop, rock and psychedelica were to make a profound effect on the music scene. 50 years later Micky Dolenz and Peter Tork carry on the Monkee's legacy of blending music and visuals in their stage show, which includes rare films and images from the original series.

Plus today on Drive we're launching a bid to discover what is Britain's current favourite curry.

We've spoken to the British Curry Awards and the British Curry Club, and we've come up with a top 10 list of curries. We'd like you to head to the Radio 2 website and vote for your favourite dish from our list.

We'll be hearing from chefs around Great Britain, who each will be championing a different dish and we've got recipes online so you can try your hand at making each one. Feel free to let us know how you get on!
