Vernon returns and Jack Dee chooses his Tracks Of My Years

Comedian Jack Dee picks the songs that soundtracked his life in this week's Tracks Of My Years. Plus the Album and Record Of The Week and Ten To The Top!

Comedian Jack Dee chooses his penultimate songs in Tracks Of My Years this week.

Jack broke into comedy nearly four decades ago after trying out an open-mic gig after work, and his trademark dour humour has graced our TV screens and airwaves since the early 90s.

He regularly hosts 鈥楬ave I Got News For You鈥� and 成人快手 Radio 4鈥檚 I鈥檓 Sorry I Haven鈥檛 A Clue鈥�, and his style of dead pan comedy is best illustrated by the title of his agony uncle book, 鈥榃hat Is Your Problem?鈥�

Jack鈥檚 also starred in two of his own sitcoms, Lead Balloon and Bad Move, and hosts a podcast called 鈥極h My Dog!鈥�, where he interviews well-known dog owners about their canine antics.

He鈥檚 on tour from November with a brand new show called 鈥楽mall World鈥�, with the tour taking him across the country for over twelve months.

Also, there's the mid-morning music quiz Ten To The Top, a trip in to the 成人快手 Archive with Vernon's Vault, and the Record and Album Of The Week

Whatever you're up to, Vern wants to hear from you - email vernon@bbc.co.uk - and if you鈥檇 like to apply to take part in Ten To The Top, the address you need is tentothetop@bbc.co.uk
