Suggs's Dream Dinner Party

My Dream Dinner Party

Available for over a year

Singer-songwriter Suggs hosts a dinner party with a twist - all his guests are from beyond the grave, long-time heroes brought back to life by the wonders of the radio archive. Suggs is joined by poet and broadcaster Sir John Betjeman, reggae legend Bob Marley, politician Tony Benn, and singer-songwriters Amy Winehouse and Aretha Franklin. As the mackerel sizzles on the BBQ, Suggs and his guests keep warm around the fire bowl to discuss fathers, the poetry of London, the lyrics of love - and the search for goodness. There’s music, laughter - and a man in a fez makes a late appearance… Written and presented by Suggs Produced by Sarah Peters and Peregrine Andrews Researcher: Brook Plumptre Additional Editing: Jerome Watson ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Archivist: Will Mort Executive Producer: Iain Chambers A Tuning Fork and Open Audio production for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio 4
