Radio 2 new girl Vanessa Feltz and Dame Kelly Holmes joined Graham

Dame Kelly Holmes and Vanessa Feltz - warming up for her Radio 2 show - popped by to chat. In the Grill Graham section, a listener got some advice about her bullied moggy.

Dame Kelly Holmes dropped by this week and told Graham all about her truck-driving days, while new girl Vanessa Feltz revealed why she was thinking about wearing a beekeeper's outfit on her first day at Radio 2...

Adam in Manchester chose this week's 'I Can't Believe It's Not Better' song which was Brian and Michael's 'Matchstick Men and Matchstick Cats and Dogs', and Martin Scott in South London picked 'She Came from Fort Worth' by Kathy Mattea as the latest 'Tune with a Tale'.

And in an instalment of 'Grill Graham' that really captured the nation's imagination, Lucy sought advice for her bullied cat, while George really got Maria's goat complaining about his so-called 'Plain Jane' girlfriend.
