Jeremy Vine is one of the most familiar voices and faces in British broadcasting.
He's presented his Radio 2 lunchtime show since 2003, and its mixture of music and news reaches six million listeners every week.
Jeremy also presents a weekday show on Channel 5, and since joining the BBC almost forty years ago, he's been our correspondent in Africa and appeared on everything from Newsnight to Strictly Come Dancing.
His books, Murder on Line One, and most recently, Turn the Dial for Death, feature the radio presenter, Edward Temis, turning his hand to detective work.
You've brought us music by Schumann, Ennio Morricone, Mussorgsky, but I think you're going to begin with one of the planets.
