Gilbert O'Sullivan reflects on his incredible career in the music industry, the highs, lows and meaning behind his best-known song Alone Again (Naturally) ahead of his gig at Edinburgh's Queen's Hall. They discuss his new album, and we hear his new single, Growing Old Disgracefully. They also talk about the court cases which lead to him being unable to make music for close to a decade.

Forbes Masson and Siobhan Redmond tell Grant about their play Happy Days, which is coming to Pitlochry Festival Theatre.

Jeremy Vine shares the next of the 5 things that shaped him as he reflects on the live event which had the biggest impact on him.
