Things get heated in a sauna

Spend Saturday lunchtime with Emma. Whether you’re out and about or chilling at home; Emma is standing by to speak to you and hit shuffle on all your favourite music.

There's no better feeling than a Saturday afternoon, right? Whether you’re out and about, or preparing for a glorious night in, Emma Willis is standing by to speak to you and hit shuffle on all your favourite music.

On Match of the Day, Emma's weekly dating slot, she chats to listeners about their love lives; the good, the bad and the unforgettable! Today she chats to Vicky from Somerset, who recalls a recent rainy beach date in Minehead with her husband Sean and their dogs. The couple first met during a police fitness test in 1988 and recently celebrated 36 years of marriage.

After 2pm, it's the Saturday Matinee, and you are the stars of the show! As theatres across the UK welcome their afternoon audiences, Emma checks in with all the performers out there. Today Emma chats to singer and West End star Matt Cardle ahead of the opening of Kinky Boots at the London Coliseum later this month.
