We talk Christmas trees, showbiz gossip and puffins today - and we’re thrilled to be joined by a voice you might recognise from Funtime Friday - Alasdair Satchel is live from the Isle of Mull bringing us all the latest from that part of the world.

And Alasdair has a wonderful podcast of his own - What We Do In The Winter, which we highly recommend, it’s a really great listen and there are so many fascinating stories from his guests - you can find it at https://whatwedointhewinter.com.
