Tunes and chat for Stir-Up Sunday

Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie present a feast of great music and chat for weekend breakfast

Today they celebrate 'Stir-Up Sunday' - a day traditionally associated with making Christmas pudding - with a delicious mix of music and chat.

The custom of mixing and steaming Christmas pudding on the last Sunday before advent still continues today, so Mark and Stuart select a stirring selection of tenuously related tracks... providing the perfect playlist for pudding preparation.

Also on the show... a host of quality radio items including 'The Chain' - our world-famous list of over 8000 interconnected songs.

There’s also the chance to take part in ‘Tea Time Theme Time’, guessing the link between three top tunes.

Plus a finely balanced blend of new and old music, setting you up for a Sunday.
