Neil and Chris鈥檚 Unpredictable Party Playlist

Join Neil and Chris - Pet Shop Boys - as they take over Radio 2 for three hours with an unpredictable playlist. Expect the unexpected.

Another chance to enjoy the Pet Shop Boys, first broadcast as a Christmas special - but they don't do Christmas like anyone else; their 1987 Christmas chart-topper 鈥淎lways on my Mind鈥 was the most unlikely festive hit, and so their Radio 2 takeover will continue in that same vein as they keep the party going just as the Christmas tunes are put into storage for another year.

Expect no Christmas songs but do expect a playlist like no other. There will be disco hits, synth-pop gems, dance bangers, the odd showtune and a few of Chris鈥 personal Northern Soul favourites. Three hours in which there will be no mourning the end of another Christmas鈥uite the opposite. Only Pet Shop Boys could get away with this!
