Call me cynical but I am not entirely convinced David Davis' second choice is genuinely heartfelt.

And just why didn't he select our beloved Petties now that he's Neil Tennant's new best friend? :roll:

Oh, and as for Janet, congratulations Patrick. :wink:

In view of her love for the great outdoors how's about 'We're R-A-M-B-L-I-N-G' !? :D

Or 'Home and Dry' for when she returns from a ramble on a rainy day! (Sorry had to get that one in before someone else thought of it) :idea:

I seem to be the only poster coming up with song title suggestions! As it is Desert, ISLAND Discs, how's about `Between Two Islands` ?

She went for 'Always on my mind'
Not only as one of her 8 records, but as the ultimate choice for just one record also.
Missed the broadcast in the end, but info is on BBC website. Sadly the BBC does not offer ' Listen Again' for Desert Island Discs. Anyone else catch the broadcast?

Yeah, I'd be curious to know why she picked that particular song, "Always On My Mind"..
And everything about tonight feels right and so young
And anything I'd want to say out loud will be sung
It's in the music...

Because it's the best cover version ever and in the top 5 best singles of all time, that's why :D

Anyone who missed it in the UK can listen to the repeat next Friday morning or record it. I am fascinated to learn that she is presently in a 10 year relationship with a guy - she did not say who he was but yet she still regularly goes on holidays and to parties and Shows with Neil - how does she manage this?
