Phil Williams sits in

Phil is live through the night live from the Salford Riviera, with a Punderland XI, Midnight Mastermind, Wish You Were There and Shiftfaced.

Phil has your back during the big hours, live from the Salford Riviera.

Punderland XI is where you test your pun skills. Phil gives you a theme, you have to come up with celebrity puns on that theme, to fill our team, the Punderland XI. Then Phil reveals the team in his best 5Live commentator voice.

Midnight Mastermind is the quiz where you ask the questions and test Phil on your own specialist subject. He never knows the subject beforehand and has just one song to revise before facing the questions.

Wish You Were There is your chance to soundtrack a story or situation that Phil will tell you all about. He wants your suggestions for the perfect song to capture that moment.

Shiftfaced is for everyone on the nightshift, working hard to keep the country going. Tell Phil what you’re up to, who you’re with and where you are. And he’s always keen to know what snacks are powering you through!

To listen on most smart speakers, just say "Ask ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds to play OJ Borg".
