XTC's Andy Partridge flies in to chat to Mark about a new book 'Complicated Game: Inside The Songs Of XTC'. XTC were formed by Andy Partridge and Colin Moulding in 1972 and made their name with hits like 'Making Plans For Nigel' and 'Senses Working Overtime'. The book itself is a collection of conversation between Andy and American journalist Todd Bernhardt which chart the history of the band and the ethos behind their songs. There's also a tour of his hometown Swindon.
