There was much to mourn this week with the news breaking of the loss of Dolly Parton and Tim Curry.

Both died this week, aged 80 leaving behind a significant and immeasurable legacy across the globe.

For Dolly in particular, countless children aged between 0-5 will receive a book every month, regardless of family economic circumstances thanks to Dolly's Imagination Library.

This was inspired by her late father, who could not read or write, and encouraged his children to dream big.

Grace, a lifelong fan of Dolly and of Tim Curry joined us on air to discuss the extraordinary impact of both.

Play to listen back in full.

Keep up to date on all the latest from The Big Breakfast Blaa with Ollie and Dymphna from 6am until 10am daily.
