Desert Island Discs: Thom Yorke

DESERT ISLAND DISCS: THOM YORKE (320kbs-m4a/113mb/49mins)
BBC Radio 4 broadcast: 22nd September 2019

Thom Yorke has been the front man of Radiohead, one of Britain’s most successful British bands, for 34 years. They have sold over 30 million albums worldwide, and have won three Grammys and four Ivor Novello awards. Their debut studio album, Pablo Honey, was released in 1993, with their debut single, Creep, becoming a big international success.

Thom decided on his career at the age of seven, when he lay on the floor between large speakers at a friend’s house and listened to Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody. He made his own electric guitar when he was 10, and wrote his first song at 11. At his secondary school he joined up with fellow pupils and they formed a band called On a Friday, as that was the only day they were allowed to rehearse. They all went their separate ways as university students, but then signed to Parlophone in 1991 and renamed themselves Radiohead.

Thom has collaborated with artists including PJ Harvey and Björk and has composed for film and theatre. His first feature film soundtrack, Suspiria, was released last year. His first classical piece, Don’t Fear the Light, was premiered in Paris this year, and he has also been touring his latest solo album Anima. He is an activist on behalf of human rights, animal rights, environmental and anti-war causes.

Desert Island Discs: John Cooper Clarke

DESERT ISLAND DISCS: JOHN COOPER CLARKE (320kbs-m4a/101mb/44mins)
BBC Radio 4 broadcast: 21st July 2019

John Cooper Clarke first achieved fame with his poetry during the punk rock era of the late 1970s. Born in Salford in 1949 to Hilda and George, he suffered from tuberculosis as a child and was sent to recuperate with a relative in Wales. He failed his 11 plus exam and was educated at a secondary modern school which he hated. However the one “rose in a garden of weeds” was his English teacher, Mr Malone, who instilled a love of poetry in John and his classmates.

John had various odd jobs after leaving school at 15 and by his mid-20s, he was reciting his poetry in clubs around Manchester. His entry into the punk scene was helped, he says, by “already looking like a punk”, and despite some initially hostile receptions from audiences waiting for the Sex Pistols or the Buzzcocks, he acquired a cult status, going on to release five albums of his poetry set to music by former Joy Division producer Martin Hannett.

By early 1980s, he was also in the grip of a heroin addiction which would see him write very little for over a decade. He cleaned up in the early 90s after marrying his second wife, Evie, and having a daughter, Stella. His star began to rise again in 2007 when one of his poems was used in an episode of The Sopranos and others were included on the GCSE syllabus, which led to collaborations with artists like Plan B and Alex Turner of the Arctic Monkeys.

Desert Island Discs: Nitin Sawhney

DESERT ISLAND DISCS: NITIN SAWHNEY (320kbs-m4a/90mb/39mins)
BBC Radio 4 broadcast: 16th June 2019

Nitin Sawhney is a composer, musician and producer working in the worlds of music, film, video games, dance and theatre. He has released 10 studio albums, scored over 50 films and television programmes, and is known for his collaborations, with musicians and artists including Paul McCartney, Akram Khan, John Hurt and Andy Serkis.

He was born in 1964 to parents who had emigrated from North India the previous year to work in the UK. His father was a chemical engineer while his mother taught English and later worked at the post office in their home town of Rochester. Nitin showed early musical promise when he took up the piano aged five, later also learning flamenco guitar, sitar and tabla. He was bullied at school at a time when the National Front was gaining traction and music became his sanctuary.

After abandoning a law degree at Liverpool and completing an accountancy course in Hertfordshire, he became financial controller of a hotel, before leaving to become a full time musician. While at college, he met Sanjeev Bhaskar and formed a comedy duo with him which would become the radio and TV series, Goodness Gracious Me.

His breakthrough came with his fourth album, released in 1999, entitled Beyond Skin, which was nominated for the Mercury Music Prize. Since then, his career has been in the ascendant: he has established himself as one of the most versatile composers for film, scoring pictures like Midnight’s Children and television programmes including the BBC’s Human Planet series. He received the Ivor Novello Lifetime Achievement Award in 2017.

Desert Island Discs: Classic Desert Island Discs - Ricky Gervais

DESERT ISLAND DISCS: CLASSIC DESERT ISLAND DISCS - RICKY GERVAIS (320kbs-m4a/75mb/33mins)
BBC Radio 4 broadcast: 7th April 2019

Another chance to listen to the comedian, Ricky Gervais speaking to Kirsty Young in 2007.

In just twelve episodes, his show The Office changed the face of British television comedy. At its centre was the comic monster, David Brent, a middle-manager being filmed for a mock-documentary who saw the ever-present cameras as his route to popularity and fame. Ricky Gervais's performance was both excruciating and unmissable - one critic called the programme "among the most affecting and invigorating works of fiction since the turn of the century".

As he discusses with Kirsty Young, comedy was the language he grew up with - the youngest of four children, being able to come up with a gag or a smart rejoinder was the linguistic currency of his home. That, he says, is where the 'show-off performer' was born. Now with seven Baftas, two Golden Globes and an Emmy to his name, Ricky Gervais is gratified that his work is recognised and says his aim has always been to bring art into comedy.

Favourite track: Lilywhite by Cat Stevens
Book: A coffee table book of art
Luxury: Vat of novocaine - a non-addictive pain-killer.

Desert Island Discs: Martin Freeman

DESERT ISLAND DISCS: MARTIN FREEMAN (320kbs-m4a/122mb/53mins)
BBC Radio 4 broadcast: 31st March 2019

Martin Freeman is a multi-award winning actor, best known for his roles as the lovable Tim in BBC Two’s The Office and as Dr Watson to Benedict Cumberbatch’s Sherlock Holmes. He also played Bilbo Baggins in Peter Jackson’s Hobbit trilogy, Lester Nygaard in the US drama series Fargo and Everett K Ross in the film Black Panther.

Born in Hampshire in 1971, he grew up in Teddington in south-west London. The youngest of five children, he was just 10 when his father died of a heart attack. As a teenager, he played competitive squash, making the national squad, until he realised he lacked the necessary killer instinct required and switched to youth theatre.

He studied at the Central School of Speech and Drama and left in his third year to work at the National Theatre, playing minor roles. He first reached a wider audience when he was cast as Tim in The Office, which was broadcast from 2001 to 2003 and became the first British sitcom to win a Golden Globe. More screen roles followed, including playing Arthur Dent in the film of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. In 2010 he first appeared as Dr Watson opposite Benedict Cumberbatch’s Sherlock and went on to win both a BAFTA and an Emmy as Best Supporting Actor. He has continued to work in films, TV and on stage.

He appeared in Sherlock with his ex-partner Amanda Abbington. They have two children.

Desert Island Discs: Bob Mortimer

DESERT ISLAND DISCS: BOB MORTIMER (320kbs-m4a/98mb/42mins)
BBC Radio 4 broadcast: 3rd February 2019

Bob Mortimer is a comedian best known for his work with his comedy partner Vic Reeves.

For 30 years, he and Vic have appeared in numerous TV series together, including Vic Reeves’ Big Night Out, Shooting Stars and The Smell of Reeves and Mortimer. Bob first saw Vic performing in a south London pub: Vic was wearing a Bryan Ferry mask while trying to tap dance with wooden planks strapped to his feet. Bob found this hugely entertaining, and began to take part in Vic’s shows.

Bob was born in 1959 in Middlesbrough, the youngest of four boys. His father died in a car crash when he was seven and Bob says he became his mother’s little helper – although he also set fire to their house after playing with fireworks. As a teenager he dreamed of a career as a footballer, but he ended up studying law at university, and worked as a solicitor in south London.

In 2015 Bob underwent triple heart bypass surgery. After this – in a rare diversion from working with Vic – he accepted an invitation from fellow comedian Paul Whitehouse to get out of the house and go fishing, which led to a successful TV series, Mortimer and Whitehouse: Gone Fishing.

Desert Island Discs: David Baddiel

DESERT ISLAND DISCS: DAVID BADDIEL (320kbs-m4a/98mb/12mins)
BBC Radio 4 broadcast: 27th May 2018

David Baddiel is a comedian and writer. Known both for his solo work and for his comedic collaborations with, among others, Rob Newman and Frank Skinner, he has also written a screenplay, a musical and several books. Born in 1964 to Jewish parents, the second of three boys, he was brought up in Dollis Hill, London. His father was a scientist from Swansea and his mother was a refugee, whose family had to flee from Nazi Germany. When David was 13, his older brother Ivor played him sketches by Derek and Clive which kindled his appetite to become a comedian.

He read English at Cambridge and became vice-president of the Footlights before starting out on the London comedy circuit. Together with Steve Punt, Hugh Dennis and Rob Newman, he was part of The Mary Whitehouse Experience for Radio 1 and later BBC 2. Rob and David went on to create Newman and Baddiel in Pieces, and were the first comedians to sell out Wembley Arena with a gig in 1993, prompting newspapers to declare comedy "the new rock 'n' roll". David then formed a comedy partnership with Frank Skinner and they hosted Fantasy Football League and later Baddiel and Skinner Unplanned. They co-wrote the lyrics to one of the best-known football songs, Three Lions.

In 2005, David took a break from performance and concentrated on writing novels for adults and children's books as well as the script for a film, which became a musical, The Infidel. He returned to stand-up in 2013 with a show about fame. He recently mined his parents' idiosyncrasies and the rare form of dementia from which his father suffers for a stand-up show entitled My Family: Not the Sitcom. His partner is fellow comedian and writer Morwenna Banks. They have two teenage children.

The 2Tone Story

THE 2TONE STORY (320kbs-m4a/129mb/56mins)
BBC Radio 6 Music broadcast: 25th August 2019

Dave Marshall Barrett looks at how the likes of The Specials and The Selecter put Coventry on the musical map. He chats to all the members of the 2Tone movement, revisiting the places and the people who lived through the birth of a musical phenomenon.

They share stories about the early gigs, the creation of the front cover of The Selecter’s single made up from cuttings carefully placed then knocked out of place from Jerry’s dog! They talk about how the band got their name; the good times and heartbreakingly, the bad times.

It was a break up at the height of their fame – when arguably their biggest hit GhostTown was at the top of the charts – that they split. Their original line ups were never to be again. Despite efforts for reunions over the years. The Specials and The Selecter both perform without their founding members Jerry Dammers (The Specials) and Neol Davies (The Selecter).

The Specials (now just Terry Hall, Lynval Golding and Horace Panter) have come back this year with a brand new album Encore – it entered the album charts at number 1 earlier this year 40 years on from them forming.

Floating In Space

FLOATING IN SPACE (320kbs-m4a/417mb/3hrs)
BBC Radio 4 Extra broadcast: 13th July 2019

Grab your space suit, climb on board and get ready for take-off, because BBC Radio 4 Extra is taking you on an adventure into space.

As the British Astronaut Tim Peake orbits above us in the International Space Station, we will be flying past him on a three hour audio space journey, from a launch, to a spacewalk, then touching down on the Moon and Mars, before crashing back to earth.

Samira Ahmed (Radio and TV presenter, childhood space obsessive) is our captain, navigating the course through a rich mix of space themed radio dramas, readings and comedies.

Along the way we will explore the cultural influence of the space race, examine the highs and lows of life as an astronaut, and see just why the limitless possibilities of radio makes it the perfect medium to capture the vastness of space.

Samira is joined at points across the journey by the science fiction writer Simon Guerrier, she will also hear from radio producer Dirk Maggs about why Space makes for such good radio, and she will takes some giant leaps of her own in an astronaut's space suit.

Programmes include:

The first episode of Charles Chilton's ground breaking 'Journey Into Space'; we follow Alexey Leonov as he takes the first ever space walk in 'Two Sides Of The Moon'; the astronaut Kathryn Thornton tells us about the solitude of space in the documentary 'Alone'; we hear the strange story of what really happened when man landed on the moon, as reimagined in 'One Small Step'; Helen Keen looks at our obsession with travelling to Mars in 'It Is Rocket Science', before Stephen Baxter takes us there in the Dirk Maggs produced 'Voyage'; and finally we follow the astronaut Chris Hadfield in a nail biting return to earth from his biography 'An Astronaut's Guide To Life On Earth'.

Along the way. there's extra insight with selected moments from 'Soul Music', 'Just A Minute', Nick Mohammed's 'Apollo 21', 'Saturday Live' and 'A Night With Helen Sharman'.

So assume your launch position, this mission is set to take off in 5...4...3...2...1......

Andrew Weatherall - A Mix Of Three Halves

ANDREW WEATHERALL SITS IN FOR IGGY POP - 6 MUSIC 23.08.19 (320kbs-m4a/266mb/1hr56mins)
BBC Radio 6 Music broadcast: 23rd August 2019

DJ Andrew Weatherall sits in for Iggy Pop tonight with a mix of three halves (geddit?) including an ecelctic electro workout. He’s picking up the All Day Rave mantle from yesterday for all the weekenders out there.

Initially working as a freelance music journalist, Weatherall's DJ career started to take off in the late Eighties when he met Danny Rampling who invited him to play his club night Shoom.

He went on to become a regular Shoom DJ, playing the upstairs room alongside his friend Terry Farley, as well as spinning records at Paul Oakenfold's Future/Spectrum nights and Nicky Holloway's Trip.

In other words, some of the key club that came to define dance music as the Eighties turned into the Nineties.

His first studio work was alongside Paul Oakenfold working on the essential club remix of Hallelujah for the Happy Mondays. Other remixes followed, notably "World in Motion" for New Order, "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" for Saint Etienne and "Soon" for My Bloody Valentine which was ranked at number 1 in NME's list of "The 50 Best Remixes Ever".

His complete re-working of Primal Scream's RnR ballad "I'm Losing More Than I'll Ever Have" into the mind-bending Loaded was so perfect it failed to make the aforementioned chart of remixes.

Since then he's gone from strength to strength both in the studio and behind the decks.

BBC Radio 6 Music broadcast: 22nd August 2019

If you like the deeper, darker, more dubby ends of club culture then this is the mix for you. Take a minute to meditate on bass, with one of the most influential producers and DJs of the last 20 years. On his own and as one half of Digital Mystikz, Mala is responsible for the South London sound, which became known as Dubstep. But beyond that Mala's music and live sets continually explore all aspects of bass music and culture, consistently pushing it to new, previously unchartered territory.
