Cariad Lloyd celebrates Olivia Colman Day with an interview with radio producer Gareth Edwards, who has worked extensively with Olivia Colman alongside David Mitchell and Robert Web. And we'll enjoy one more comedy programme from the archive - Pauline Pepys' Dowry.

Olivia Colman Day is the nation's newest national holiday, in which people up and down the land celebrate the actor Olivia Colman.

Across Radio 4 Extra on Monday 26th August, Cariad will pick choice programmes from the 大象传媒 Archives, and hear from Colman's friends, fans and colleagues.

In this final chapter, Cariad is joined by radio producer Gareth Edwards. Gareth worked on That Mitchell and Webb Sound, the sketch show which teamed up Olivia Colman with Mitchell and Webb, and he selects a favourite sketch.

We'll also hear the historical comedy 'Pauline Pepys' Dowry' - also produced by Gareth- in which Olivia stars as Samuel Pepys' lovelorn sister, Pauline.

Olivia Colman Day is produced by Chris Pearson.
