Guy Garvey brings you a special slow moving Slow Sunday show celebrating sloth – and sloths.
Guy will be chatting to Brittany Williams of Chester Zoo's Twilight team about everybody's favourite moving mammal and picking a selection of suitably dreamy, drowsy tunes that struggle to get out of second gear. Expect music from the likes of Chet Baker, the Beatles and Shannon Lay.
Plus the Beckapedia picks some hammock friendly seventies magic and the Poet Laureate gets sent to the Tower.
