Last week, we told you that former Pink Floyd manager Peter Jenner was to appear on BBC Radio 2's Radcliffe and Maconie Show on Monday (May 10th). For once, the show just had Mark Radcliffe presenting it, and in the event turned into an almost two hour retrospective that Floyd fans will enjoy.

Inspired by Rob Chapman's highly rated new book, Syd Barrett: A Very Irregular Head, the show starts with a lengthy interview with Robyn Hitchcock (who performs "Gigolo Aunt"), before Peter Jenner arrives in the studio and talk concentrates on the early years of the band. Jenner proves an easy going and fascinating guest, reminiscing on the heady days of the 1960s.

Finally, there's an extract from Mark Radcliffe's 2008 interview with David Gilmour around the time of the Gdansk release, and Gilmour's performance of Syd's "Here I Go".

You can catch the show for the next few days - it should be available until Monday - through the BBC's iPlayer service via their website and also on Virgin Media, and is certainly worth catching if you can.

The BBC's current, six part TV programme "I'm in a Rock'n'Roll Band!", takes a look at what makes the perfect rock'n'roll band, with each aspect given due focus as the weeks unfold.

The third episode, airing on Saturday, May 15th at 9:45pm (BST) on BBC2, takes a look at The Drummer: "Does the drummer's clown-like personality and appetite for destruction mean he doesn't get taken seriously? Or is he the band member most in tune with the primal power of music to get us moving? Speaking up for the much maligned sticksman are Queen's Roger Taylor, Pink Floyd's Nick Mason, Stewart Copeland of The Police and Red Hot Chili Pepper, Chad Smith."

The show is repeated on May 18th at 11:20pm, and May 22nd at 1:20am. You'll also be able to catch it via the BBC's iPlayer service. More details here.

As we mentioned last week, Nick Mason was taking part in the 2010 Mille Miglia race in Italy on May 6th-9th, which goes from Brescia to Rome, and back again, a distance around 1,000 miles. Driving in a 1949 Le Mans Replica, which was built in 1971, Nick had his good lady wife, Annette, as co-driver. The event saw 375 cars participate in all sorts of weather - including rain, fog, and even snow when they reached the mountain roads of the Terminillo.

With thanks to Stefano Tarquini, we have a selection of six shots from the event, courtesy of the respective photographers, which you can see below.

Further to the previous story, four more dates have just been added, making twelve additional dates in all if you take into account the show added late Friday/early Saturday for December 8th at San Jose. Here's the additional shows:
