Shaun shares fabulous tunes and a confection of teatime tomfoolery, including another bespoke poem, brief encounters with TV legends, and some hat chat inspired by his new titfer.

This week's playlist includes some Latin jazz from Willie Bobo, Anna King’s answer song to James Brown, some happy Northern Soul from Edwin Starr, gorgeous new tunes from deary and Marlee, some trip hop from Hooverphonic, and a personal favourite from Dire Straits.

To listen to the show on most smart speakers, say: “Ask BBC Sounds to play Shaun Keaveny".

Produced by Spiritland Productions for BBC Radio 2.
