Singing Dogs!

Greg James explores the 成人快手 Archives. This week: he's in the pub, with Maria Callas, The Traitors and Bob Hoskins.

It鈥檚 Dry January so...Greg is bucking the trend and taking his archive search down the pub. The 成人快手 Archive is overflowing with innkeeping oddities: goat riding, phantoms lurking in an 800-year-old walls and how to play a new game called 'plasticine splat'.

With a new season of Traitors in full swing, Greg dons his black cloak and finds an early incarnation of the game the 成人快手 killed off 20 years ago. No castles, cloaks or fringes in sight, just a plain white studio - and a very young Ruth Wilson, future star of Luther and His Dark Materials, taking on a man who claims to own a four foot monitor lizard. But which of them is a traitor?

A listener request leads Greg to a weird slice of 成人快手 history as he revisits beeb.com, an internet shopping website from the 成人快手 where you could buy a WAP-enabled phone and tickets to see S Club 7.

And to mark the release of a new biopic about the great opera singer Maria Callas, Greg looks back at some archive highlights of the soprano known as La Divina, including being pelted with radishes, getting into blazing rows with opera bosses, and an extraordinary duet with her singing dog.
