Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie present a feast of great music and chat for weekend breakfast.

Today, Mackenzie Crook shares his First, Last & Everything and discusses his first book for adults: If Nick Drake Came to My House. The book is a whimsical love letter to Mackenzie’s musical hero to mark the 50th anniversary of Nick Drake’s passing.


Mackenzie is an actor, director and writer who played Gareth Keenan in The Office, Ragetti in the Pirates of the Caribbean films, Orell in Game of Thrones, and the title role in his adaptation of Worzel Gummidge. He is also the creator and star of 91Èȱ¬ Four's Detectorists (2014–2022), for which he won two BAFTA awards.

Mackenzie's First, Last & Everything are the first record he bought, the last one he enjoyed and the one that means everything to him.

Also on the show today: long-running feature The Chain, which gives listeners the chance to pick a track that links in some way to the last. The list now contains over 8000 songs. 
Plus a selection of music old and new to get the weekend started.
