On the Saturday December 21, 2024 edition of The Richard Crouse Show we'll meet Bette Reynolds. She's Everyone's Favourite Granny and if you've been on line in the last few months—and who hasn't?—you probably saw her performance on The Voice UK. Earlier this year she became the show's oldest contestant ever when she did her rendition of The Sugarhill Gang's, Rapper's Delight in an effort to get coaches Sir Tom Jones, Will.i.am, LeAnn Rimes and Tom Fletcher and Danny Jones to turn their chairs. She became a sensation, and she joins me today top talk about being on the show, doing a duet to Black Eyed Peas, I Gotta Feeling, with the song's writer Will.i.am and her new Christmas single “Grandma's Christmas Escape.” Then, we'll take a deep dive into Christmas horror stories with author Joshua Millican. Over the past decade-plus, Millican has proven himself to be a horror expert of the highest caliber. He is one of the genre's premiere journalists, and today we'll talk about the best Christmas horror movies and his two new books, “All Through the House: The Novelization” and “Chopping Mall: The Novelization.” Finally, I'll share my conversation with one of the world's most successful music stars, Robbie Williams. He found fame as a member of the pop group Take That from 1990 to 1995, launching his mega successful solo career in 1996. By 2008, he had sold more albums in the UK than any other British solo artist in history and right now his record sales stand at over 77 million worldwide, making him one of the best-selling artists of all time, and now his wide ride to fame has been captured in a new movie called Better Man, which comes to select theatres on Christmas Day before opening wide on January 10.

All this week on the programme we are looking at the topic of loneliness. Women are statistically more likely to be lonely and so in today's programme we will look at ways to cope with those feelings and if it's possible to reframe them. Anita is joined by Radio 4's All in the Mind presenter Claudia Hammond and author of Alonement, Francesca Specter. The comedian Nicole Travolta is taking her one-woman show Doing Alright to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. It chronicles her life as a compulsive shopper, how she freed herself from debt, shame and the weight of a famous last name, one spray tan at a time. When she is not dressed up in a wig doing impressions, she can also be found performing comedy around LA. The children's charity NSPCC says that its Helpline received over one thousand contacts last year about children experiencing coercive and controlling behaviour, a form of domestic abuse. The school summer holidays can be a particularly difficult time for some of these children. If you are worried about someone, what should you do? Anita is joined by Paddi Vint, Development Manager for the NSPCC and a woman we call Margaret, who experienced coercive control in a previous relationship. The Cuban-Spanish singer-songwriter Lucy Calcines joins Anita to sing live, ahead of her headline performance at the UK's largest Latin music and dance festival this weekend. She shot to fame after her appearance on the Voice TV show in 2020, when she achieved a four chair turn by superstar coaches Meghan Trainor, Sir Tom Jones, Olly Murs and will.i.am. Anita will also be joined by the festival organiser, Amaranta Wright, to talk about all things Latin. Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Rebecca Myatt Studio manager: Bob Nettles

Bradley Walsh is a familiar face to many millions of TV viewers, as the host of quiz shows including The Chase and Blankety-Blank, and as an actor in dramas such as Doctor Who and The Larkins. Bradley was born in Watford and after leaving school at 16 he was apprenticed to the local Rolls-Royce factory as a jet engineer. A keen footballer, he signed to Brentford FC when he was 19 but his career was cut short by injury after only two seasons with the club. He dealt with this blow by turning his attention to the entertainment business. He worked as a Pontin's bluecoat and then tried his luck as a stand-up comedian - doing impressions and telling jokes at working men's clubs. In 1986 he turned professional, and his first booking was a stint at the Pavilion Theatre on Cromer Pier. Later he became the support act for performers including Dame Shirley Bassey, Leo Sayer and Sir Tom Jones. In 1997 he hosted the quiz show Wheel of Fortune and three years later got his first acting role in the Channel 4 series Lock Stock….a spin-off from Guy Ritchie's 1998 feature film Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. He followed this up with roles in Coronation Street, Law & Order: UK and Doctor Who Bradley released his debut album Chasing Dreams, featuring his interpretations of popular standards, in 2016. In that year it became the biggest-selling debut album by a British artist. Bradley lives in Essex with his wife Donna and their son Barney who appears alongside him in the television series Bradley & Barney Walsh: Breaking Dad.

RNIB Connect Radio's Toby Davey welcomes back Vidar Hjarding MBE, Inclusion and Diversity Consultant for ITV News across England, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Channel Islands to re-start his regular Connect Radio audio described theatre reviews with his first visit back to a live theatre performance in almost 2 years. Vidar's first trip back to the theatre was to see the audio described performance of ‘What's New Pussycat' at the Birmingham Repertory   Theatre on Wednesday 10 November at 7.30pm with live audio description by Julia Grundy and Caroline Smith.  What's New Pussycat  is a musical, comedy theatre production Written by Tony Award winning, Joe Di Pietro which marries  the classic Henry Fielding novel The History of Tom Jones.  and the iconic songs of Sir Tom Jones, to relive the delicious excess of London's in the swinging sixties. Set in 1965, ladies' man Tom Jones arrives in London with a broken heart, but he also has big dreams and a big voice. He quickly discovers an exciting world of mods and miniskirts, dancing and decadence, but most of all…incredible music. Romance and adventure await, but will Tom ever be reunited with his one true love, who seems more interested in designing for Carnaby Street than in being Mrs. Tom Jones?  Vidar began by explaining to Toby what it was like for him going back to the Birmingham Rep in almost 2 years and the joy of being back in the theatre seeing a live audio described show. If the rumours are true that What's New Pussycat will be hitting the London West End stage in 2022, then Vidar would certainly recommend going to see an audio described performance of the production for a trip to London's West End.

Welcome to summer 2006! And things were, indeed, Crazy. That top selling nine-week run at No1 was significant for not just featuring (the not crime fighting rodent) Dangermouse but for being the first UK chart topper to make it there purely on downloads (remember them?) alone. But of course, you knew that chart fact already, didn't you, pop pickers?But there is so much more to rediscover on NOW 64, as we dive back amongst those shiny cover surf boards to ride the crest of this noughties pop wave. Classic Pop writer, journalist and all-round (indie) pop kid John Earls guides us through the hits and otherwise across these two CDs. Where to begin?

This summer, Joe will be speaking to inspirational friends and some of his favourite people to ask them what they do to keep themselves feeling mentally and physically strong in the face of life's little challenges. It might be going for a new personal best on the running machine or cosying up with a good book; every guest will share the one thing that works for them in the hope it might inspire you to try something new. Sir Tom Jones' career in pop and show business has spanned seven decades with 100 million record sales to his name. Now aged 80, he's still releasing music and preparing to perform live in the summer. In their conversation, Joe hears Sir Tom's 'fairy tale' story from singing at his cousin's weddings in the valleys of South Wales, to meeting Elvis in LA and performing in Vegas. Tom speaks candidly about losing his wife Linda in 2016 and how exercising in the gym and therapy helped him come through his grief. He describes how performing live to his fans helped him get back on his feet, and how a daily dose of 'inversion therapy' keeps him feeling strong. This is sunshine in a podcast.

Over 100 million records sold. Thirty six Top 40 hits over a career of five decades. Grammy, Ivor Novello and Brit Awards adorn his shelves. And best of all he was BFF's with the 'King of Rock and Roll' himself the beyond iconic Elvis Presley. And now as one of the Judges on The Voice he has re-invented himself again. Wow. So, surely he had done enough in his career? OH NO. I wasn’t so well a couple of years ago. When I came out of hospital, I saw the doctor and he said that, taking my age into account, it was time to slow down. Well, really, that was like a red rag to a bull. And from that moment, 'Surrounded By Time' was born. And now it has gone straight to Number 1 in The U.K. The Welsh Whirlwind is back and better than ever. He tells Fergal D'Arcy the story behind the songs. All of them carefully chosen by him from The Waterboys outstanding opus 'This Is The Sea' to Bob Dylan's 'One More Cup Of Coffee' he has tried like a legendary Actor entering a famous role to inhabit the songs in the same way.

” Radio Owlsnest Episode 13 “ Return to the nest, all wild OwlHeads! Return unto thy nest! It’s time for episode 13 with your untethered, untamed host, ‘Pagey’. This month’s extravaganza touches upon religiosity, with Saturday nights at the dance hall being ‘MY’ personal youthful religion. I’ll be playing a spanking new track that urges us to visit the sacred house of the dance and the groove - that holy building of the funk, shrine of the beat. The credence of the song: ‘Everybody’s got to find their own true God’. Yes - I think that’s true, don’t you? Also I’ll be premiering a brand new instrumental track from my forthcoming ambient album, being finalized now as we speak. And please join me for a sneak peak again, into a very special project of mine (soon to be released), an intimate diary album called ‘Fugitive Pieces’. An album I hold dear. I’ll be alighting upon a terrifying moment when I was producing the great Sir Tom Jones, and he cut me down to size mercilessly .... shrinking my ego down to a minuscule blob of quivering pathetic uncertainty. I’ll spin a song that I wrote with Bernie Taupin, one of my favorite collaborations with him, that deals with the minefield of fame and the uncertainty of growing old. Zeke Monroe and the Flasheads will make another flamboyant appearance - reminding us that the 80s are very much still alive and well, in Munich Germany. Abstract philosophical humor seems to be right up Zeke’s creative alley. Among the rare and forgotten odds and sods from my cobwebbed song vault, the obnoxious and bewildering quiz will make an unwelcome return... I can hear the groans from here! All in all, my fellow OwlHeads, I fancy Episode 13 is not at all an unlucky omen - but I hope a fun little side distraction away from all the political and cultural uncertainty of our present time. Music - still is and always has been for me - an escape into brighter landscapes, a retreat into the wider open imagination, a true sanctuary. So return unto the nest all feral OwlHeads! It’s time to musically hibernate once again. - Martin

It's a slow news day - nothing to see here - so why not listen in to part two of Stalemates' dissection of David Bowie's worst album? So many reasons. However, true to form, the Stalemates pull a lot of positives out of "Tonight" and the cultural flotsam it leaves in its wake. Hear Joe say something wise about "Station to Station" and John suggest that the music industry is now over and THAT'S OKAY. Joe eviscerates poor Sir Tom Jones and they fall out over the relative merits of Bowie's tie in film "Jazzing for Blue Jean" but are reunited in their condemnation of John's Bowie impression, which no longer sounds like "Bad Suggs" but just sounds like John on the way back from the dentist. You'll come for the Bowie but you'll stay for the Stalemates (even if one of us sounds like a wasp in a matchbox)...

Tom Jones o Thomas John Woodwar, que así se llama realmente, nació en Gales, en 1940. Procedente de una modesta familia minera, se empleó en su juventud en los más variados oficios, desde albañil hasta vendedor a domicilio. Al mismo tiempo, para ganarse un dinero, creó el grupo Tommy Scott and The Senators, con el que actuaba por las noches en locales de moda de los pueblos de los alrededores. En una de estas actuaciones fue descubierto por Gordon Mills, un compositor célebre que era miembro del grupo The Viscounts y quien se convertiría en su mánager hasta su muerte en 1986. Mills lo llevó a Londres en 1963 y, dos años más tarde, obtuvo su primer éxito con It’s not unusual, canción compuesta por el propio Mills que logró ser número uno de los “hit parade” británicos y que le supuso ser nombrado mejor artista novel en la octava edición de los premios Grammy. Más tarde vendrían título como What’s new pussicat (1965), tema principal de un comedia homónima cuyo guión firmó Woody Allen, y la balada country Green, green grass of home (1966), que consolidaron su carrera en la década de los 60. El éxito le permitiría en 1966 ejercer de telonero de los Rolling Stones en Londres. Así que ésta una de esas canciones … What's New Pussycat … y esta es la otra.Green, green grass of home Sin embargo, fue el tema Delilah (1968) el que le abrió las puertas del mercado estadounidense y el que le consagró a escala internacional. Un año después grabó en Estados Unidos el disco en directo Tom Jones live in Las Vegas y el álbum This is Tom Jones, con los que consiguió varios discos de oro. Por esta época empezaba a ser conocido como El Tigre, y había pasado de ganar veinte chelines a un millón de dólares por actuación. Contaba también con un programa propio de televisión, This is Tom Jones, en la cadena norteamericana ABC, que en sólo tres años (del 69 al 71) le reportó nueve millones de dólares. Ya ganamos dinero, ya somos alguien. Delilah Lo cierto es que la canción se las trae. El Sr. Jones nos cuenta que tenía una novia que, a quien se le ocurre, le ponía los cuernos. Naturalmente su hombría no podía resistir semejante afrenta y, dice literalmente “sentí el cuchillo en mi mano y supe que no reiría nunca más”. Podría haber dado un giro a la letra y decir, desde ultratumba, que no pudo resistirlo y se pegó un tiro, o la dejó, o se fue con otra, o… bueno todo nos suena a sabido y que no cambia nada. Pero seguimos, en 1970 se había convertido en el único cantante en solitario que había vendido más de un millón de discos solo en Gran Bretaña, llegando incluso a desplazar a Frank Sinatra del ranking de cantantes mejor pagados del mundo. En 1974 vendió su lujosa residencia en Surrey (Inglaterra) y se trasladó, huyendo del fisco de su país, a una mansión de Los Angeles que había pertenecido a Dean Martin. A partir de esta fecha grabó algunos discos en Estados Unidos que no trascendieron fuera de las fronteras norteamericanas, lo que, unido a un contrato que entre 1981 y 1986 lo ligó a un productora que solo le permitía grabar música country, ocasionó un aislamiento musical que se prolongaría durante algunos años. En 1987 volvió a la primera línea con el tema A boy from nowhere, que alcanzó el segundo puesto en las listas británicas. Un año más tarde vendría su versión de Kiss, un tema de Prince que grabó con el grupo The Art of Noise y que tuvo una excelente acogida, mereciendo el premio MTV al mejor vídeo del año. Y lo cierto es que suena muy, muy bien. Tom Jones es conocido, sobre todo, por su baladas melódicas pero ha cultivado los más variados géneros a lo largo de su dilatada carrera, desde el pop al góspel, pasando por el soul, el rock o el country, y ha colaborado también con muy diversos y prestigiosos interpretes. De estas colaboraciones hemos hecho una pequeña selección que merece le dediquemos unos minutos. Y empezamos, nada más y nada menos que con Janis Joplin O esta otra con su amigo Van Morrison Tom Jones y Van Morrison - Bring it on home to me Algunos de estos duetos están incluidos en el LP “Reload”. Otra joya de duo es "Burning Down The House" junto a la banda The Cardigans, canción del grupo de los 80 Talking Heads, cuyo vídeo musical se caracterizó por su gran realización e innovador concepto. Con este disco tuvo el reconocimiento absoluto por su trayectoria la cual se consolidó con los siguientes años Un último dueto, Tom Jones con The Pretenders y el electrizante “Lust For Life”. Cuando murió su mánager de toda la vida, Gordon Mills, su hijo Mark se hizo cargo de su carrera. En 1993 firma un contrato con la casa discográfica Interscope Records que le edita el álbum The Lead And How to Swing It, un nuevo giro en su música adaptada a los nuevos tiempos y un éxito inmediato que conquistó sus audiencias más jóven. Situation En 1998, Tom Jones hizo un mini gira con Robbie Williams y de estas colaboraciones destacamos esta memorable versión que ambos hicieron del éxito de Lenny Kravitz “ARE YOU GONNA GO MY” El 29 de marzo de 2006 fue nombrado caballero de la corona británica por la Reina Isabel II por su trabajo como artista. En la actualidad, Sir Tom Jones sigue vigente, realizando giras internacionales y también conciertos en las Vegas, donde se presenta durante diez o doce semanas al año. En septiembre de 2015 anunció su nuevo y hasta la fecha último disco, Lon Lost Suitcase y la publicación de su autobiografía Over the top and back. De este último disco vamos a escuchar uno de sus cortes, “Take My Love” Y hasta aquí hemos llegado. Hoy hemos podido comprobar la versatilidad de un artista entrañable, pelín hortera pero con unas cualidades innegables, una voz poderosa que ha sabido poner al servicio de una gran cantidad de estilos, que ha sabido adaptarse a los tiempos y evolucionar sin perder su reconocible impronta.

Buckingham palace has appealed to the world's media not to publish unauthorised images of Prince George. It says some paparazzi have gone to, "extreme lengths" to take pictures and, "a line has been crossed". The palace said a small number of media organisations, mostly in Germany, France, Australia, New Zealand and the US, had published photos of Prince George in "unacceptable circumstances". However it said the "vast majority", and all UK publications, had refused. Are the Palace trying to re-draw the lines of what is acceptable intrusion? Steve Hewlett hears from Robert Jobson, Evening Standard Royal Editor, and Ken Wharfe, former Scotland Yard Protection Officer to Diana, the Princess of Wales and Prince William.Sir Tom Jones has criticised the BBC after being told he would not be returning to The Voice. After four series as coach on the talent show, it's been announced he will be replaced by Boy George. Sir Tom took to Facebook to criticise BBC executives about their, "sub-standard behaviour", in the way he was told, with "no consultation or conversation of any kind". The incident has raised questions about the way media organisations, like the BBC, handle top talent. Steve discusses with two leading agents; Sue Ayton from Knight Ayton Management and Jon Thoday Joint Founder and MD of Avalon.Archant, the fifth largest regional newspaper publisher in the UK, with titles in East Anglia, London, Kent and the South West, has reported its first revenue and profit growth in eight years. Steve Hewlett asks CEO Jeff Henry what they're doing to grow, when similar publishers are declining. Producer: Katy Takatsuki.

Cerys Matthews celebrates the life of one of her musical heroines, the great gospel singer Mahalia ("Halie") Jackson, who died in 1972. Jackson became one of the most influential gospel singers in the world at the height of her popularity, inspiring singers like Aretha Franklin and Mavis Staples. But she was also one of the unsung heroes of the civil rights movement in America, described by the legendary historian and broadcaster Studs Terkel as one of the bravest people he'd ever met. As a child she suffered illness, poverty and deprivation. The Church was her shelter. During the late 1920s, at the height of the great migration, she toured Illinois performing in churches. But it was in Chicago that she made her name and carved out a place for herself as the first professional gospel singer. She refused to sing secular music, a pledge she kept throughout her professional life. Even Louis Armstrong couldn't persuade her to sing jazz with him. By the 1950s and 60s, touring across Europe, she was being described as "the greatest spiritual singer alive." Throughout, she remained a close friend and comrade of Martin Luther King, travelling with him to the deepest parts of the segregated south and often singing at gatherings where he spoke including at the famous march on Washington. In this programme Cerys shares her passion for Mahalia with another huge fan, Sir Tom Jones. She also talks to gospel singer Vermettya Royster and to the Reverend Stanley Keeble both of whom knew and played with Mahalia. We also hear archive recordings of the historian Studs Terkel talking with Mahalia in the years when they became close friends. We hear from blues and gospel writers Val Wilmer and Viv Broughton. As well as hearing her live performances. Produced by Sarah Cuddon A Falling Tree Production for BBC Radio 4.

Acabamos la semana con otra Mezcla con Grandes de los 70 y 80, mas bien de los setenta en este caso, pero esta vez no es un solo Vs, en esta mezcla hay 3 en una batalla memorable, con versiones actualizadas y alguna que otra sorpresa!!! Jackson 5 (también llamados The Jackson Five, o simplemente J5) fue un grupo musical estadounidense formado por cinco hermanos varones afroamericanos, en Gary, Indiana, que fundó la casa discográfica Motown, que fue la que bautizó al grupo. El grupo, en actividad desde 1968 hasta mediados del 1975, desarrolló un repertorio basado en los estilos R&B, soul, funk, y posteriormente disco. Considerados "uno de los más grandes fenómenos de la música popular" a principios de la década de 1970, Jackson 5 destacaron por la notable voz de sus principales vocalistas, Michael Jackson y Jermaine Jackson. Boney M. fue un grupo de música disco que alcanzó excepcional fama durante la década de los 70. Fue creado por el productor alemán Frank Farian en 1975, que por entonces trabajaba para la discográfica alemana Hansa, una compañía que en la década siguiente lanzaría a Modern Talking. Boney M estaba compuesto por cuatro artistas de las Antillas que trabajaban en Londres, Alemania y Holanda: las cantantes Marcia Barrett (Santa Catalina, Jamaica, 14 de octubre de 1948), y Liz Mitchell (Clarendon, Jamaica, 12 de julio de 1952), la modelo Maizie Williams (Montserrat, Antillas Británicas, 25 de marzo de 1951) y el ex DJ Bobby Farrell (Aruba, Antillas Holandesas, 6 de octubre de 1949 – San Petersburgo, 30 de diciembre de 2010). Sir Tom Jones, OBE, nombre artístico de Thomas John Woodward, es un cantante, actor y Caballero de la Corona Británica nacido en Treforest, Pontybird, una localidad cerca de Cardiff, Gales el 7 de junio de 1940. Ha vendido más de 100 millones de discos en todo el mundo. Espero que te guste!!!

Kirsty Young's castaway is the singer Sir Tom Jones. In a career spanning fifty years he's sold 150 million albums and his hits have included It's Not Unusual, What's New Pussycat? and Delilah. As a child it was assumed he'd follow in his father's footsteps and become a miner. But he developed TB when he was twelve and doctors warned his parents against sending their only son to the pit; they said his lungs were too weak. Now aged seventy, he has no plans to retire. "Singing's like breathing to me", he says, "my voice drives me, it tells me that I have to do it".
