Shaun returns with Lucy Porter joining after 9.00am

Shaun welcomes Lucy Porter to the programme to chat about her Edinburgh show. Plus we're after your Great Scotts ahead of tonight's Scott Walker Prom and Matt has the Music News.

Shaun chats with comedian Lucy Porter ahead of the Edinburgh Fringe run of her show - Choose Your Battles. As someone with a lifelong fear of making a scene, Lucy Porter has always erred on the side of caution when it comes to conflict. When she was a single, self-employed, stand-up comedian, it was never that much of a problem as she spent 99% of her time alone. Now that Lucy's a wife, mother and pillar of the local community, she is finding it a lot tougher. In marriage guidance and parenting manuals, the received wisdom is that you should choose your battles and not sweat the small stuff, but how do you know when to stand your ground? She chats with Shaun about the show and how shes looking forward to being up in Edinburgh again.

Plus, tonight's Late Night Prom is a celebration of the work of Scott Walker. An icon of the 1960s, Scott Walker has travelled from Walker Brothers teen idol to avant-garde contemporary musician, influencing artists from David Bowie and Leonard Cohen to Goldfrapp along the way. Jarvis Cocker and John Grant join and the show is broadcast live on 6 Music....so Shaun celebrates by searching for your Great Scotts and we'll play a track from our Album of the Day today - the brilliant Scott 4.
