Back to school, back to normal

Paddy's live from Salford every Sunday, with The Weekest Link quiz, your Sunday Dinners and this week finding out how you're getting back to normal after half-term.

Paddy McGuinness is live from Salford every Sunday.

This week he's finding out how you're getting back to normality after half-term, with the kids back at school.

He’ll play The Weekest Link, the quiz that tests whether you’ve been paying attention for the previous 7 days, and is in no way affiliated with the BBC One hit quiz The Weakest Link. If you want to take part e-mail paddym@bbc.co.uk

In Paddy's Sunday Dinner, he'll be asking for the finer details of your dinner plate, whether it's a roast with the family, a BBQ with the neighbours or lunch with your work pals. Whatever's on your plate, Paddy wants to know about it.

There’ll be great music and plenty of laughs, and Paddy wants to hear from you.

E-mail paddym@bbc.co.uk or WhatsApp 08000 288 291 during the show.

To listen on most smart speakers, just say “ask BBC Sounds to play Paddy McGuinness".

Produced by Audio Always in Salford for BBC Radio 2.
