My radio travel. Trouble with Hi Sarah. Mony my let me know it is a problem talking to you on. From town it's slow all the way from the blanks beyond book Road and it doesn't really end until you get just towards the end $67.00 junctions the scene so that's very heavy I normally during the rush hour but tsunami but now it's it's fine still a little bit closer this is the traffic coming off the M $62.00 inch 9 on Parkway delays remain on the Mancunian Way pretty much the Apollo roundabout towards Regent road and then a few charging through on the A 6 between. Struggled all morning with the temperature at lights at highlighting and still looking very heavy heading in bound also on the Woodhead pass as you travel through. It's pretty slow all the way through the garden lights and it doesn't. Get down to either much road or the M 67 thanks to Paul new great leave area is now about how green lane is blocked where there's been an accident just need to the Brooklyn Heights how do you know of a problem then you can cool 080-2100 still to double fun. Things we might swing Just before I introduce you to my 1st 2 guests can I just thank moderate from from Radcliffe these attacks are going to feel it would be bad manners not to read these out if you don't mind because you were so generous in the 1st hour with your calls etc I just thought I would be it would be oh man it's a mystery how so moderate 13 years ago her daughter had a very premature so on and the 1st time she held in the nurse asked me to lift him and help him get out the incubator and he was connected up to chooks and pipes etc and he was so tiny his head fitted in one hand and he's Boehm in the Although I was so afraid of hurting the next emotional time was the 1st time he smiled at me when we were having a walk in the park and nightly West Houghton dad was in a care home and we went to see him and he looks so frightened and he only said If you accept me home and he knew that it was going to was he and I just want to be home and Leslie from Alice and I said Can I just say in between the blubbing that we all love you we love the show because you weigh how you sleep and we relate to you because of this hope so Allison Can I ask you to tell me stuff if I don't tell you stuff so thank you for all of that great film now it's been screened sulphide you know it's called strangers here we call the dot com with a host of amazing stunts Michelle Keegan with me though I've got Steven lot who plays Danny Nolan and link us today he'll know from no offense but you Elaine just come back darling from the west and down and down and yes yelling telling only to get out Stephen good morning dolling Yeah I'm just from the flat so no. Stephen you don't there's a doll and yet they drop the. They have drug me that only. Coming from your background I mean because I know where you come from don't know as much about late books or be impartial. You know pushed off with your background but I don't really fit in at all well you just try and do what you can do you know you know it's a different world you know but you just apply yourself with it since they are all on a film set so you really don't know. Yet we finished up on Saturday it was a beautiful Brian frail play called artistic rats but the thing is for me because this isn't the world I grew up in either you know but it's just about the writing when you connect to beautiful writing and he just he writes about the human condition human behavior that stuff the joy you know I was a little and lot where you you know listening to that you know you can't be real sly knowing of life and real stories and you obviously get connected to them and what you have to kind of put out so so tell us about strangers who we call well it's been a real labor of love you know which is great for us because it set in so for that the writer and director Chris Crane is also from soul food and actually was a postman on sulfur precincts will be seeing that run off from the. Company basically top into the world of a local criminal I play you dead a lot of the time Well generally I watch that's really unusual and quite dead on a bit to be dead yet but you do see me alive in a good because it's the build up of ice the slot the header eyes everyone and they decide the residents are grouped together and get rid of it but obviously killing someone isn't not easy and it's all about the kind of build up so that in the fall out and you know there's plenty of laughs to be out so it's worth a watch what would you play like I will my parents comes on to the precincts looking for Danny NOLAN And 1st the community of people who helped get rid of them and are trying to figure out who she is that 1st thing. Think she's a copper but she couldn't be further than you know copper Well she's well listen and yeah Where did you film it precincts so food so for bracing was not like oh it was great it was great you know it was more drama because I know the residents and because you know not upon my stomping ground oversea along with the flock soon then you know the precinct house who had it and also you know that was all where it came from so it was just lovely to be connected to the people and I thought on I thought was great for the community and I mean really it's a film about a community isn't it length and yeah and they they didn't get involved in running the case during our job really need to be there we put the work exactly where it should pay so we have no local case sitters and everyone chips in and you know yeah I. Think that's what you think it was Elaine because I'm from sulphide I was born in Mali. I mean I'm quite used to being insulted not because I've been common for 14 years I'm not going to say what my 1st thought are you know you've got some of your 1st thoughts going they go you go please don't legalize yank do you do in your trade. When she came to Seoul for the 1st thing. Is that you know like this was kind of the jewel in the crown so kind of jumps in a council that this was the place I went look you know was if like where else would you want to pay but now I think this city is painted red I mean because the old the red buildings that that was the 1st thing that you know struck me it was a unique place. A lot of great a month just to live my own was going to sound a lot the whole of the North of England but soul food is very special to me. There's no way quite like it for better or worse but I know exactly and let's not alienate the city phones because Also while driving direct to Christie's from say as so way is for everyone to go to get funding for something well it's because to make a film even if you do it on the cheap. Cheap is relative it's not cheap yet how do you do it well it's difficult it really is difficult especially in a climate which you know really embraces from China says now it's difficult to get people on board to selling local stories so you know we went down the regular channels and it proved you know really difficult because people didn't really believe that we could make it for the money that we were going to end up making it for but you know so we ended up having achieved something to you know private investment and I've got you know a great relationship with some private investors and they thought it was worth the pull and that delighted of the is now what's on the screen so yeah so we do the thing is an Asian is the tone the sun with You Tube or you can Michelle Keegan is on it as well oh did you get persuaded to do this like you know what was the incentive coauthoring this wedding right here because they came in on the. Yeah I was I'm normally not reticent A by parts that I end up playing I normally know straight away that I want to play them but this character spends most of her time off her head on homemade crystal meth and I was rehearsing a play darling I am at the time so I am on my weekends I would come up and film my scenes so I didn't really have a day off but it was so much full and I never knew what was going to happen each scene each take and it was a good bunch it was quick and. The final project is it's definitely worth it is it is a good watch I've heard I'm delighted to say a trail of people from the arts through this door particularly over the last few moments from a working class background. And even though I'll be honest I've got a middle class lifestyle I know that now can pay the bills. But I always think I'm a working class low you are yet. Opportunities for working class actors are not some real champions in here because it is it's difficult in the world we live in now if you from the but ground because you have to stop and you've no money yeah well I remember even now and it was all about whatever job he could get it was like saving up to jump on the rattler you know see it on the train to London and is it going to come off it's people taking the lottery ticket and is it going to come gold and it was all about what. Kind of put it squarely money away so I could actually make the train for you know I mean the not so you kind of build it and I think now with rising rents and all the rest of it you know it's awful game and also nowadays who can afford to go to you know great I guess it's to train people are at a disadvantage if they can't afford you know to train for 3 years Sluggo decent dollars going to uni but we can't play for to do that she's got a work well she's that makes you know to get in the morning you know to buy stuff. You're not seeing here as you like and. I thought of some of the other day you hadn't think of thought of for a while now I can't remember and I normally do that I can't remember because of my advanced age community think who I'm a well though you know what I think you know it's easy to be when I started out you know Yet it was always influenced by you know great American says well it's been a dope chain are we you know Johnny course and you can if they have obviously come in sort of phone but they're like now it's I don't know where main influences can come from. Normal people you know people that you know. Craig says I mean thankfully we've got many so it's hard to really pin it and you know Elaine loads from Salva let me just give you by the way very quickly Nice one. Strange as it were. The music's crowd you know we soundtrack really you know we've got some amazing bonds there not a lot of it has to do with Teddy Christian any Christian you know a band he pulled all of our chains started 10 or so great bands and so most were on sign but they're all local bands munches to solve 3rd and soon and doing really well now so this hopefully will help them as well so when's it premiere Well we're going to want the print works you know I think is the view of the old print works on the whole with a full before them we doing screenings universe is light sulfur Dimanche Is there a condom at Sheffield Liverpool that goes on around there and then we go on it's a cinemas light the light cinema the real cinema so yeah we get a bit of a nice role and then it's all across online platforms you know how much pressure do you feel doing something like. Get in front of the camera do it sold Don't you know pressure millions of people working for the I mean I don't feel it around on the camera you know certain things on stage is a different ballgame but you know I'm more comfortable on camera What about you Larry when you have to get the camera up there didn't you because you're pretty you think yeah yeah he's producing as well I did proper juice Strangeways So it's been it's been a great journey of go and say something from an idea and literally piecing it together on I'm still feel as if I'm climbing that mountain because it's all about now are people going to say the 1st production job he produced before I've done a little bit not only scaled I mean at one point we had about 180 people involved so it was a big old outfit Wow yeah. Not too bad of you really for the local hello you know they say. Oh I'm good I'm thinking it's all about feeding the kids not certainly didn't. Stephen laws and the length custody stages here we come to scene on generally sank you so much for talking I thank you brilliant scene your. Piece the way do you mind just travel update traffic in trouble now once again we have. A low I love you don't judge you know for a minute then Sarah I was going to call you something else I've no idea why I. Found I'm going to have another you know what he what he was right to the day. And Shipman you mean and shopping all day brought to them on a called him Sarah. Because then he was about to go he sent a thought say it's not her but it's you obviously sometimes if we can't call the wrong name we let it go but when it's the opposite sex it's very difficult he was going to say no no no yeah no that would be tough and it was happening to the boys said thankfully sadly quite the moment it's no when there's no we see the heading towards reaching road. Other than you like you around it just right roundabouts are just about this delay heading to you from. The last how many calls but I wonder if this is a road where it's heading to you from the slunk right away through. This. Is something we see during the rush hour and then the 6 between that she got worse since it's killing very heavily to highlight through the temperature at lights around the junction with window has lain in books to that ripples of fuel spill in CLOS up just near the high street but. Pull cold in bolts in the grate leave the area telling is the green lane was blocked by an accident near the Brooklyn hotel if you know of a problem I way 100 to an 8.

Only happy with so Clue One was this started work in the 1960 S. Clue number 2 was this likes wearing ties so those are your 1st 2 clues and I'll give you some of the names that have been eliminated including John Humphrys. Billy Joe Donald Duck. James Bond Donald Ducks amazing Lulu Terry Wogan at least you'll get better care an office a dibble almost characters but John Lennon wrote Stuart inspect the clue so Jimmy Wagner may Jerry Hall Billy Connelly soon Robin de none of those were correct so one more lessons a clue warm started to work in the 1960 S. .

It's a little living. Rooms. Things to Remember T.P.T. See and. It's not a competition T.P.T. Say it's a taking parts that counts against my better judgment and I'll be absolutely honest we did a round robin with 3 of us because if it been left to me you wouldn't have got the extra clue so they knew that they doubt vote I would get. If there are just service so that's a good 3rd voice said to be so he read started work in the 1960 S. I can live without likes having ties and yeah can live with I got a funny serenade.

Once again we're joined by Hi SARAH Hi Mike still wonder what's causing his key with you Bruce town on the road at the moment it's a so much heavier than usual as you approach you from the slang Secu is beyond book Road and doesn't really end almost a hit to the M 62 inch and 13 we are hearing that it same could be some roadworks in temperature lights but the other side of the carriage might seem really seem to be slowing down that much there are delays towards the roadworks of cool. Breeze there and the restrictions of the Chester Road roundabout causing problems on the monkey new way the A 62 very busy between Hazelgrove and dates. Through the road just on Buxton road that through high lane I understand this new restrictions going to be happening around the house both bypass the 5 back open but the secure at the moment chattering northbound towards the Greenmount about so looking like it's getting a little bit busier in the area now and as you head to you on the M 6 S. Clearer the moments between home and crew where we've got restrictions but place to call in an update if you can it's a 100 to 18 to 5 day afternoon with my very special guest this week is film critic author and musician Makana. Talk about why he had to come and study amount I had come to register because I read about it in the. Looked out over the bridge of Mancunian way that Kevin come into taking that photograph of Joy Division and why music is more of a hobby than a profession. Full of you. Coming towards many hit me and I was just Dre was like. Like he really does mark in conversation with. Weekdays from B.B.C. Radio Magister looking for in that layer own backyard course will be joining me in . Thought Jim It's 50 minutes time to guess. The 1st of the golden years in the golden hour but in the meantime I've been really part so lucky I'm really proud of some of the musical talent that we've had on the program particularly over the last year or so and I get to mate and share. Some of the artists a really really really really famous I mean when you get Benny from in the studio you go so it's a ledge when you got meatloaf you've got somebody in a legend however I have people in the studio Oh I think you're going to have an impact over the next few years and with me the other day fresh of the back of support into LIPA and Raglan Bowman on their recent you can European Tour Grace Council has been getting loads of attention for her track why not me now she's performing the soup kitchen in Manchester in October and she joined me earlier we had a real conversation now cause we've never met you I always ask this question so many reverence you before who are your heroes the musical heroes Lauren hell at least key you know so much in. So many just like strong female artists and people I've always looked towards to like that very honest and that kind of allowed me to bring out my honesty I was just listening to some stuff earlier So much so I go on and Google you yeah you listen to some songs and it reminds me of your voice reminds me you could literally be from the thirty's the fall is the fifty's sixty's so right so of. No night club soul jazz book proper old school thank you right moment but with like a. Fly on don't really categorize too much what you saw him be a thing on top of it well that's like a lot of ninety's R. And B. Is the music I grew up listening to people always said like from being a kid that my voice was ready. Unique or Wed when I was younger. You need is there time and I guess but that's I think that's why I love Nina Simone so much is because I don't have a voice like her but her voice was so unusual and I thought she was a man and I thought it was kind of allowed me to thing actually it's cool to have a voice that isn't the be but I think is like when did you 1st perform it was 1st Kiki did I 1st did it get I played Joseph in jazz in the teleco dream when I was 10 in the Essex of harmony school but my 1st show that when I 1st performed them for one of the songs I'd written I was I was 13 and a half when you started songwriting Yeah I was about teen when I started songwriting and I was about 6 months after I started I did play a show in Britain where I grew up was there a moment when you realized. That you had something even as a young person without being too big heavy but you have to start you know how much you might have something there I don't ever think I. Talent wise I don't think I was ever an amazing singer an amazing guitar estimates and keys play I never thought I think it was more I knew I had something special in the way that I was really able somewhere and was a thing that I learned how to do that really enabled me to talk about how I felt and I knew that that was like an amazing gift that I was able to kind of process things and ready to talk about things I felt as a teen year old so yeah it was more about I was like have I'm really on something because I feel so much better writing the songs without being overly spiritual you think of something that we don't know or what you believe in but something just in your D.N.A. That it's been almost given you the talent I think I was always post. I think I was always going to find the thing I just don't know what it was going to happen my step dad was a person that he came into my life from I think just before my 13th birthday for my 13th birthday he bought me a guitar and he was a musician he was like you have so much you need to say grace you don't like me because you've never had a man around before here's a guitar write it down and he literally just like changed my whole being as a person what do you look at the difference between a 13 year old girl and your 21 now yeah what's the difference between the 2 of you produced your rocks from then right through to now I just don't understand myself a lot more now I think if I'm ever going through anything I just sit down in a room right down feel better after and I'm good whereas then I kind of didn't have an outlet and I was just very angry started. Having her 13 year old in the house you understand what she's still under you know she's a. Way Where do you want to go what do you want to do what struck you do you want for great she's career do you think I think for me like my goal always since the day that I wrote my 1st song was on a personal level is just having the ability and having the confidence in myself to talk about things I've been through and kind of overcome things but with my career my biggest goal is just for as many people as possible to listen to the music and to see themselves and connect to and feel better after listening to them Why do you want people to say I've just been listen to this song by grace and she's just told me about her why why do you want them to know about how you feel you know it's not it's not about me it's not about me for me somewhere and was a thing of allowed me to release and get rid of the feelings I had I've written the songs in a way where when people listen to the music it doesn't have to be about my life it can be about anything for them what it could be about wellness as well exactly that's the purpose when I had a doubt 11 years old and she was singing her songs and I had never been in love before I listen and I relate it to my childhood situation with my single mom and dad and I kind of relate it. She was talking about her boyfriend at the time my dad not being around and I think with my music it's about what it's about but it can be about anything from going out. With you more you know and it's really difficult I mean I know I'm saying struggling I don't know your life going to be a single mom yeah I know it's going to be. My girl with a single mom and I'm also mixed race and I grew up with out the back side of my family which as a kid I was very confusing so I had no one to physically identify with it was very difficult again somewhere and in kind of being able to write it down and being able to talk about it in this way that was singing and allowed me to kind of understand why I felt the way I did now and feet I feel so much better about everything and how much you discovering who you are from your culture your and from your background and from from where you you know you dodging the ground new from came from how you get in with. Every down line and something new about myself every day how would you describe yourself. I just describe myself as Grace I don't know just like people always think that I'm going to be a very sad person because of my music in the way that it sounds but I'm a very happy young 21 year old guy while I was on the stove silencers listen to listen to versions of studio my version I wouldn't say it's poignant. Heart because it's a song there's a smile on your face when the are you face is bright when you sing it it's because it's been lifted from me because I've written it down and got out and I think that's the thing with the songs they could sound sad but in my opinion they're more empowering it's like we can go through this sad stuff but at the end of it will feel what you need to do next you've got the. Do some really nice gigs you haven't just released why why not me my most recent single which I mean I love and I'm so happy that's out we're going one tall and October we're coming to Manchester on the 22nd to the soup kitchen so much come down and yeah just releasing more music making videos kind of just people getting to know me and when you change style do you think you know when you. Progress you show you your structures stuff differently now than you did when you were 30 and. Your songs will change the genre will change how how do you think now it's going to move along I have no idea at this point at the moment and the way that I've always done things is I just kind of worked with what I was given at 13 years old to 1516 years old I don't have anyone to work with so I was saying in my room I taught myself how to play piano I taught myself how to produce and I was just kind of making chins I thought sounded good there's now I have the opportunity to work with more people and experiment more news other people's talents and kind of collaborate on things I have no idea what is going to sound like in a year or 2 years but it's hard work and it's got anything to do with it you should do really well yeah hopefully he's like you next hour interview be a big star say I don't remember him so if you could pick one evades one of the songs what you want what would you like to hear I think I know why her not me I think describes me completely great great talking to you thank you so much.
