Guy celebrates his mum's 90th birthday (and a few other things as well).

He's got great music old and new from the likes of Gary Numan, the Hives, Wolf Alice and Fats Waller. He also has what he reckons is the only acceptable version of pub singer standard My Way. ,

Meanwhile the Beckapedia celebrates a French icon whose fame never crossed the channel and Simon Armitage fancies having a proper job.
