Comedy legend June Whitfield talks to radio drama director Enyd Williams about her amazing career in 鲍鱼tv radio - spanning over 60 years.

Though June is a star of 鲍鱼tv TV, from Absolutely Fabulous to Terry and June, radio remains June's true love.

June picks some of her very favourite performances - as we journey with her from her big break on radio, joining the team of Take it From Here in 1953, to working with comedy greats like Ronnie Barker, Frankie Howerd and Bob Monkhouse - to playing Mrs Thatcher on Radio 2鈥檚 The News Huddlines - and being cast as Radio 4's Miss Marple, by director Enyd Williams:
