Tunes, chat and Winnie-the-Pooh celebrations

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

Today they celebrate the 100th annivesary of beloved honey-loving teddy bear Winnie-the-Pooh. Created by English author AA Milne, the first Winnie-the-Pooh book was published on 14 October 1926 with illustrations by EH Shepard and stories of the anthropomorphic bear and his friends including Piglet, Eeyore, Owl, Christopher Robin, Rabbit, Kanga and Roo.

Mark and Stuart celebrate the centenary with a selection of Pooh-related tracks and chat. With music from artists including Joni Mitchell, Daft Punk and The Pooh Sticks.

Also on the show, 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 8,800 songs.

There’s also Crisps On the Radio and the chance to take part in Tea Time Theme Time, guessing the link between three top tunes.

Produced in Salford by Audio Always for BBC Radio 6 Music.
