The Best of the People's Playlist 2017

Lauren looks back at the best People's Playlists of 2017.

Lauren looks back at the best People's Playlists of 2017. The People's Playlist takes place every Thursday on the Lauren Laverne show and plays out a run of tunes based on something topical that's happened during the week. From anniversaries to news stories, musician deaths to building things with music, we ask you, the listener, to suggest tracks on the Wednesday, to play out on Thursday's show. All the while, setting the context with audio clips from TV, film, radio, and...Anchorman.
