Comedian Kim Blythe chats about her new show Puzzle, and Maureen Beattie and Brian Ferguson join Grant to chat about a new stage adaptation of The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie. It comes to Edinburgh Lyceum theatre on 2 October, a fitting location, since Christina Kay, the real-life teacher who inspired the novel’s famous lead character, was born in Grindlay Street, right next to where the play will be staged. Jeremy Vine shares the film that shaped him in our third of 5 things this week, and in today's Radio Scotland Rewind, Grant takes us back in time to the year Big Country had a hit with Wonderland, and their second album Steeltown reached number 1 in the UK charts, Bill Murray starred in the highest-grossing film of the year - Ghostbusters - and the Scottish rugby team won the Grand Slam for the first time since 1925. But what is the year?
