BUCKS FIZZ’S Cheryl Baker chooses her Tracks Of My Years from past Eurovision Song Contests as KEN BRUCE (RADIO 2, 9.30AM) continues to build up to this year’s final. Cheryl picks entries from Britain’s Sandie Shaw and Sweden’s Loreen, who both managed to win the slightly naff contest while retaining their cool image. Cheryl — who first took part in the 1978 Eurovision with British band CoCo (who failed to make the grade with the song Bad Old Days) — recalls Bucks Fizz’s victory with the chirpy Making Your Mind Up.

David turns up at her husband’s funeral, and Suzie experience­s a whirlwind of emotions. Writer Katherine Jakeways delivers a witty script full of the complexiti­es and contradict­ions of real life.

In her fond, funny and original show YOU CAN’T TAKE IT WITH YOU (RADIO 4, 11PM), Angela remembers her dad and tells us what she put in his coffin for his final journey.
