Steve Wright sits down with much-loved comedian and TV star Peter Kay in this one-off Christmas treat. Peter picks his favourite songs as he reminisces and chats about his best-selling memoir, TV: Big Adventures on the Small Screen, for this exclusive special. Peter relives a childhood obsessed by TV and how his perseverance and passion for the small screen set him up for a career in comedy. Highlights include how Peter and a barking dog nearly upstaged Sir Paul McCartney on the world’s biggest stage; the day when three Knights of the Realm – Sir Michael Parkinson, Sir Michael Caine and Sir David Attenborough - helped him do his tie up; his own rendition of the theme to Blockbusters; and music from the TV shows that Peter grew up with, including Auf Wiedersehen Pet, Mork & Mindy and Minder.
