Kirstie Allsopp and Paul O'Grady
TV house hunter Kirstie Allsopp, comedian Paul O'Grady, tracing family history with Esther Safran Foer, footballer Kelly Smith and the inheritance tracks of John Humphrys.
Richard Coles and Shaun Keaveny are joined by Kirstie Allsopp - she has been in our living rooms, stepping into other people’s living rooms, and generally exploring their houses, for 20 years via TV's Location, Location, Location. She’s also embraced the nation’s obsession with crafts with programmes such as Kirstie's ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½made ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½, Kirstie's ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½made Christmas, and most recently Keep Crafting and Carry on. She joins us.
We also have Paul O’Grady, first known to us as Lily Savage, comedian from Birkenhead, dog lover, small holding owner, national treasure.
And Esther Safran Foer, the daughter of a holocaust survivor who returned to Ukraine to meet the family who saved her father's life.
And Kelly Smith, MBE, who holds the record for being the top scorer for England women with 46 goals in 117 appearances. She fought against prejudice but went on to play for England, Arsenal and in the US and since her retirement in 2017, has been a commentator and pundit on both the women’s and men’s games.
There are the Inheritance tracks of Radio 4 favourite John Humphrys - he chooses Mary's Boy Child performed by Harry Belafonte and Take the A Train performed by Duke Ellington, and your "thank you"!
