Gary Davies sits in with Griff Rhys Jones choosing his Tracks Of My Years

Comedy icon Griff Rhys Jones is taking us on his 10-song journey this week in Tracks Of My Years. Plus more music history in De Ja Woo and music quizzing in Ten To The Top

Comedy icon Griff Rhys Jones is taking us on his ten-song journey this week in Tracks Of My Years.

We've known and loved Griff's work since the late seventies in shows like Not the Nine O'Clock News, It'll be Alright on the Night, Three Men In A Boat and Restoration, but he's still perhaps best remembered for his long-running partnership with the late Mel Smith in 'Alas Smith & Jones'.

Away from comedy, Griff has hosted multiple arts and travel documentaries, including Griff鈥檚 Great Australian Rail Trip, Griff鈥檚 Great Kiwi Road Trip and Griff's Canadian Adventure, and next year he's hosting a new Channel Four travel documentary exploring the Southern States.

Griff has won two Oliviers, two British Comedy Awards, two Baftas and an Emmy, and he's currently on a theatre tour with his one man show The Cat鈥檚 Pyjamas. Having first started last year, the show sees Griff "sharing witty observations and rambling comic stories covering a diverse range of subjects: from TV travel, his childhood, Welsh family, age, fraud, late night trains and nostalgia to the TikTok generation, crocodile smuggling, and opal noodling in Australia."

Plus the mid-morning music quiz Ten To The Top, more music history in De Ja Woo, and the Record and Album Of The Week.
