Collabro, Sanjeev Bhaskar and Tommy Steele

This week Michael welcomes Collabro, Sanjeev Bhaskar and Tommy Steele into the studio.

This week Michael hosts On The Ball and will be playing a few tracks from this weekend's Family Album as well as inducting another songwriter into his Hall of Fame.

This Sunday Michael is joined by Paul Young who will perform two songs live in the Musician's Circle. It's the 35th anniversary of his number one debut album, No Parlez but before embarking on his U.K. tour the Brit Award winning singer is popping by to see Michael first.

Also swinging by the studio is actor and writer Sanjeev Bhaskar. Bhaskar rose fame in 1998 in the series Goodness Gracious Me and firmly cemented his place as one of the U.K.'s leading comedy actors in the Emmy award winning series The Kumars at No. 42. Now he's starring in ITV's Unforgotten and will be telling Michael all about the third series.
