    “I remember so much fun, Back in 1981. Ain’t no place I’d rather be. Except for 1983”. Men Without Hats are back, and they’re better than ever. In the first of an exclusive two-part chat, Roger Crow talks to singer/songwriter Ivan Doroschuk about the immortal 1980s smash, Safety Dance.

    Men Without Hats’ new album, On the Moon, is released this month (November), and ‘I Love the 80s’ is an instant classic. Thanks to Ivan for the Nostalgiahhh jingle.

    Thirty years after Star Trek Voyager launched, ‘Doctor’ Robert Picardo reflects on the show in a vintage chat.

    That series is streaming on Paramount+.


    It’s a decade since The Mentalist finished, so there will also be an archive interview with star Robin Tunney about that show.

    That’s streaming on Amazon Prime and NOW.


    From 2018, Jay Osmond discusses Crazy Horses, and why it was so liberating for the band. You can of course buy that on iTunes, and all good music outlets.


    There’s a tribute to Brian May, 50 years after the release of Bohemian Rhapsody. (Queen fan Roger Crow had a chat with the woman who knows him best in 2018). All Queen music can be bought from reputable music outlets.


    Plus, as Celebrity Traitors nears its finale, fans Angela Bradley and Rachael Popow assess the state of play.


    That can be seen on BBC One and iPlayer.
