You don't need me to tell you about Ardal O'Hanlon, right..? Stand up comedian, actor, writer. It's been a while since he gave us a Novel, though. His third - A Plot to Die For - is the first in a new series of gentle, funny, crime books.

In this chat we discuss the novel, learn some Irish vernacular; we talk Fame, Celebrity and Howler Monkeys. Plus plenty of hilarious stories.

Dorothy Koomson has sold over three million books and is Britain's Biggest Selling Black Writer.She stops by to tell Phil all about The Quiet Girls, her brand new 22nd novel; why she's a big scaredy cat when it comes to storylines that are too sinister and why she's lovely until you cross her...then you're guaranteed to turn up in one of her books...as a Baddie..!! She's great fun. Enjoy!

The wonderful Anthony Horowitz chats to Phil about his new Hawthorne Thriller: A Deadly Episode. In a wide ranging chat they cover: Retirement; why his grandchildren aren't allowed to use the G word; how often Anthony misses his stop on the train because he's too busy writing on his laptop; why he has no interest in Awards Shows and which Producer he describes as 'a skunk.' He's warm, funny, engaging and Phil loved recording this chat for you.

This is indeed, A Deadly Episode..!!!
