Nikki Bedi and Richard Coles are joined in the studio by broadcaster Johnny Vaughan. Best known for his presenting stints on The Big Breakfast and radio shows on pretty much every network, Johnny now has a new podcast called Alien Kidnap Club in which he interviews people who believe they have encountered alien life.

Actress Felicity Montagu stars in new series Beyond Paradise, which spins off from Death in Paradise. Known for her wide range of acting roles, especially playing Alan Partridge's long-suffering PA Lynn Benfield, Felicity talks about her life and career.

In the nineties, Patrick Duff was poised to become a huge hit as the lead singer of the band Strangelove. They supported Radiohead and Suede on tours, and played Glastonbury's main stage twice. But Patrick was living with alcoholism, which ultimately led to the band's breakup before they had their chance at fame. Since then he has been performing with a huge range of singers and songwriters, including the legendary South African performer Madosini.

After training as a stonemason, Beatrice Searle decided to complete a pilgrimage from Orkney to Nidaros Cathedral in the Norwegian city of Trondheim. As if that weren't challenging enough, she dragged a 40kg rock that she had plucked from an Orkney beach in a specially made cart behind her. She tells Nikki and Richard about this journey and its impact on her life.

Andrew Roachford, known for hit single Cuddly Toy and for his work with Mike + the Mechanics, picks his Inheritance Tracks. And we have a Thank You from father and daughter John and Amelia.

Producer: Tim Bano
