Sophie Ellis Bextor and Dame Kelly Holmes

This week Michael welcomes Sophie Ellis Bextor and Dame Kelly Holmes into the studio.

This week Michael hosts On The Ball and will be playing a few tracks from this weekend's Family Album as well as inducting another songwriter into his Hall of Fame.

Sophie Ellis Bextor will be entering the Musician's Circle once again as she's about to release an album of her greatest hits that have been reworked with an orchestra. The nu-disco queen will be reflecting on her amazing career and talking about what it's like juggling family life with her upcoming tour.

Dame Kelly Holmes will also be joining Michael this Sunday. The double gold Olympic medal winner will be talking about her latest book and podcast that focus on the importance on both physical and mental health.
