My favourite guest was in again today and it was so good to see him again. A comedy idol of mine and he didn't disappoint. But then again, even if he did, I wouldn't tell you.
Here is a photo which will be going on my phone background immediately.

Have a great weekend, back on in for Sara Cox Sunday at 10am...
Nice work by Andy Murray this morning who has reached the Australian Open final.
I sent a text to Producer Neil this morning saying I had 'overslept' and would be late when, in reality I was watching the tennis on BBC TWO.
I thought it would be appropriate to re-post this from a couple of months ago in case you hadn't seen it. Topical.
The temptation is big but I want to resist a 'button' related gag.

Anyway, I interviewed the F1 Champion last week.

I've become a movie buff over the weekend. Following on from my awful reviews a few weeks back when James King was off, I've decided to pull my finger out.
First up was '500 Days of Summer', which has a great soundtrack by the way. Then watched Quentin Tarantino's 'Inglorius Basterds' with my mates on Saturday night. I can't recommend it highly enough. It is a superb film - some amazing acting and totally deserved the awards it's just won.
I then watched 'The Hangover' (for the 3rd time). This has given me a great idea for my 25th birthday in December. (Ie. Go to Vegas)
Then last night it was all about the brand new series of 24. Oh it was a good one.
From the above information, it seems like I stayed in all weekend like a sad case. That is partly true, but managed to catch up with a load of old mates too and even managed to see my girlfriend and buy a new phone. A busy weekend.
The show this week has the usual load of nonsense, with added glitz in the form of Ricky Gervais back on the show on Friday afternoon.
Oh, and I saw Peter Capaldi from brilliant BBC series 'The Thick of It' in a coffee shop yesterday - didn't say hello to him. No point. This is him in action:
Also, following on from last week's 'Do you have an interesting story about a key-fob?' question, here's a new one...
Answer below please:
Do you have an interesting story about...some kitchen lino?
Best ones will make it on air...
This is senior Radio 1 newscaster Tulip Mazumdar:
Finally Florence and the Machine get the number one album they deserved, nice work.
Annnnyway...Good afternoon lovely people and thank you for reading - I hope you had a good weekend?
I was flat hunting on Saturday and made progress. Well, when I say progress, I mean I ruled out places I DIDN'T want to live. The ghetto being one. All fine though. I drowned my sorrows by buying some new cricket equipment for winter training. Nets start next week.
A busy week ahead and looking forward to it, I went a bit mad on Thursday and decided to go for a walk around my favourite part of London - here:
Got the Brits launch party tonight which I am looking forward to..
P.S. I watched Glee double bill yesterday afternoon with my girlfriend and I'm starting to like it. And, as predicted, adores it.
The lovely Kelly Adams who plays Emma in BBC One series 'Hustle' was on the show today. We talked about the new series (which is on BBC One Mondays at 9pm), her path to getting the part in the show (via Holby City and Robin Hood), and a very special guest that's appearing in epidode 5 in a few weeks time! Listen to the interview below to find out who's in it...I wonder!
Watch last night's episode here - it's dead good.

Tonight at 9pm on BBC Three, a show I filmed in the summer about young Brits abroad is on!
It features some very interesting characters that I met, some nudity and me in shorts wandering gormlessly around the beach.

My little niece got me a Mr Grasshead for Christmas and I thought I'd document it's 'hair' growth on the blog for the next few weeks. (don't worry, it won't be EVERYDAY!)
Here he is, day 1:
