Voledemort’s Last Stand
It was man versus vole. The odds were never in its favour. From vole-de-morts to vol-au-vents, things are getting stuck to you.
It was man versus vole. The odds were never in its favour. But from vole-de-morts, to vol-au-vents, things are getting stuck to you. Either that, or they’re dropping out of the sky, firing out of deep-fat fryers, and being “gifted” through cat flaps.
This week’s music has got a real bounce to it. There’s the sensational Patti LaBelle and the return of Aretha Franklin, and Liza’s still having a moment with The Temptations. But can you guess which song was described by James of Malvern as both “the very best and the very worst thing you’ve ever heard”?
To listen to the show on most smart speakers, assume 'The Admiral Pose' and say: “Ask ѿý Sounds to play Liza Tarbuck".
Produced by Spiritland Productions for ѿý Radio 2.
