“I work as much as ever, but always try and do nice things – but it’s harder than what it used to be like. I might have got a phone call: ‘Do you fancy doing a new show, Hello Dolly, Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, £18 a week, double bass and tuba. Eight shows a week?’ Done! That was how my life went.

Our new programme for thelatest.tv sees Juice FM presenter Guy Lloyd investigate all manner of things. He starts off with chart-topping band The Hoosiers who were mega-successful a couple of years ago, were dropped by their major label and have become fashionably independent. Their chart-topping album cost £1 million to record, their new album £100 and we reckon it's just as good. We have exclusive footage of this new record.

In future shows Guy will be doing waxing, Dot Cotton, air guitar and needs your suggestions for more crazy things (or people) to do. Send to bill@thelatest.co.uk
