Writer Mark Billingham

Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie are joined by award-winning crime writer and massive Genesis fan Mark Billingham.

Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie, with guest, crime writer Mark Billingham. Mark is one of the UK's most acclaimed and popular crime writers. He has twice won the Theakston's Old Peculier Award for Best Crime Novel, and has also won a Sherlock Award for the Best Detective created by a British writer. Sleepyhead and Scaredy Cat were made into a TV series in 2010 starring David Morrissey as Thorne, and his debut novel, Sleepyhead was chosen by the Sunday Times as one of the 100 books that had shaped the decade. Some sharper eared listeners will remember his starring role as Gary in TV's Maid Marian and her Merry Men. AND he's a massive Genesis fan!

And apart from that, YOU, the actual listener, will have the chance to be on the wireless by taking part in the never-ending Chain of conjoined records - or huddle round the office DAB speaker with your choice of afternoon beverage to gain victory in today's Teatime Themetime.
