AGONY AUNTS

Ill-Advised by Bill Nighy: The host, actor Bill Nighy claims to have made so many bad life decisions that his main skill as an agony uncle is to act as a living guide to how not to do things. He promises not to say anything profound. He insists on starting the show by warning listeners that it is simply a way to waste their time. And to a certain extent, he’s right: this series of responses to reader questions washes over you so delightfully that it makes half an hour evaporate (Agony-Aunt-type podcast, with British humour). 

Wanging On: Graham Norton is reunited with his dear friend Maria McErlane to dish out average advice and so-so solutions to your everyday dilemmas. Together they do their level best to tackle office politics, friendship tensions, unruly pets, neighbourly disputes and family bust-ups. Plus you - the ‘Wangers’ - can wade in with your nuggets of wisdom too. Each week, Graham and Maria share the latest in their life - be it bikes, books, haircuts or hangover cures.
