As well as discussing his new post as Poet Laureate and his latest projects, he will also share his 'First, Last and Everything' - that鈥檚 the first record he owned, the most recent one he's been enjoying and the record that means 'everything' to him.

Also on the show... a whole host of quality radio items including 'Breakfast Blend' - three tracks that make a great sonic blend - plus another instalment of Sunday Glove Songs.

You can take part in The Chain, choosing a track for our world-famous list of interconnected songs, as it approaches number 8000!
