The Happy Pear twins Dave and Steve Flynn will be in studio to talk about their expanding vegan food empire and how to convince children that veggies are not only good for them, but tasty too.

Maeve Binchy's husband Gordon Snell will be joining Ryan Tubridy to talk about how life has been since her passing six years ago, their 35-year marriage, and how her work continues to resonate with audiences around the world.

Meanwhile, Professor John Crown and health editor Susan Mitchell will discuss the continuing fallout from the Cervical Check controversy.

Galway hurling legend Tony Keady died suddenly last year sending shockwaves across the sport. A few months before his death, Tony had started to tell his story to sportswriter Liam Hayes, including his dramatic departure from the Galway team, and since his passing his family has decided to continue that work. His wife Margaret and daughter Shannon will tell viewers why they wanted to finish Tony's story.

There will also be music from Dublin four piece State Lights.
