Singer-songwriter Sophie Ellis-Bextor hosts a dinner party with a twist - all her guests are from beyond the grave, long-time heroes brought back to life by the wonders of the radio archive.
Sophie is joined by children's author and illustrator Judith Kerr, TV presenter and writer Paula Yates, Dracula actor Christopher Lee, writer and actor Carrie Fisher 鈥� and Carrie Fisher's mother, Hollywood legend Debbie Reynolds.
As the guests help themselves to salmon and salad, they discuss fame and the paparazzi, life as a refugee, dancing with Fred Astaire and Dracula's erotic power.
There's knife throwing, laughter, glamour, and some fireworks between mother and daughter.
