Joining Graham tonight: star of stage and screen Felicity Kendal, making her musical theatre debut in Anything Goes; talented Brit Regé-Jean Page, star of the hit Netflix drama Bridgerton; rock legend Dave Grohl, promoting the new Foo Fighters album Medicine at Midnight; Sister Michael in Derry Girls, Siobhan McSweeney, new host of The Great Pottery Throw Down; and top comic Alan Carr, taking the helm as host of Interior Design Masters on BBC Two. With music from singer and podcaster Jessie Ware, who performs her new single Remember Where You Are.

"Lockdown ended about three months ago." Hee. Excellent reply from Siobhan McSweeney. It's got to be weird to be in a gigantic production like Bridgerton and not really know how people are reacting. I don't blame Regé-Jean Page for not wanting to answer his door. People can be so creepy.

The talk about the sex scenes was interesting, as you don't usually get it from the men. I'm sure having to have an intimacy coordinator has changed a lot of things, for the good. Women are more protected.

I saw Patti Lupone in Anything Goes on Broadway, and it was divine. Hard to go wrong with Cole Porter, though. And Siobhan McSweeney pipes up with "Anything Goes but Felicity went." 

I got a Fifth Dimension vibe from Jessie Ware. I mean that as a compliment. It had a very groovy sound.

This was a great show. So much interaction among the guests.
