Katie Melua joins Richard Coles and Aasmah Mir. She talks about her childhood from Georgia to Belfast and London, her music, and she describes how the late Sir Terry Wogan championed her career and how she has released this year's official BBC Children in Need single in his honour.

We hear from children who have been helped by projects supported by Children in Need. Anna Bailey visits an equine therapy project, Taking the Reins. Poppy tells Aasmah how her visits to the Shakespeare Hospice have helped her to deal with the loss of her dad; and Richard catches up with Luke, who's been supported by Stick 'n' Step, and is en-route from London to Glasgow, as part of The One Show's Rickshaw Challenge.

(If you are listening to this on demand competitions may no longer be running.)

And Nick Knowles shares his Inheritance Tracks: Tea for the Tillerman by Cat Stevens and Synchronicity II by The Police.

Fields of Gold is out now. Katie Melua will give her first television performance of the song on the BBC Children In Need Appeal Show on November 17.

Producer: Louise Corley
