Stephen Black, aka Sweet Baboo and Howards' Way

Stuart Maconie presents solo and is joined by Welsh singer-songwriter Stephen Black, aka Sweet Baboo.

Stuart Maconie presents solo, with Welsh singer-songwriter Stephen Black, aka Sweet Baboo. He discusses his food-laden album cover, Wales in general and the Welsh Mountain Zoo.

Also Stu hears your memories of seminal 80s yacht-based soap opera Howards' Way. Who was the dishiest character? What's Jane Weaver's favourite quote from the show? Just how great is the theme tune? It's all in here and more.

The Chain winds its way through 1980s Japanese-influenced minimalistic pop and a song about an 18th century Russian leader. And pluck up your ears for Tea Time Theme Time, it's pretty niche.
