Nigel Kennedy, Grief, Red Nose Day and the Inheritance Tracks of Adam Fleming
Saturday, 14 March, 2026

On Saturday Live this week, a virtuoso violinist, a singer with a powerful story of motherhood, love and grief, and the woman who made her fortune working out how we shop. Adrian spends the hour in great company with Nigel Kennedy, Jess Mills and the hugely influential Edwina Dunn OBE. Also today, we'll be hearing from a somewhat out of breath Greg James, pedalling his way from Weymouth to Edinburgh for Comic Relief. And we are treated to a special performance by Nigel and his band - Alec Dankworth on double bass and Peter Adams on the cello. This week's Inheritance Tracks comes from Adam Fleming. Presenter: Adrian Chiles Producer: Lowri Morgan Assistant Producer: Alice McKee Researcher: Jesse Edwards Editor: Glyn Tansley (The live performance in this programme has been shortened for music rights reasons).
