Phil's offering includes Joanna Lumley reading Pride and Prejudice, Simon Callow reading Animal Farm, and Tom Baker reading Great Expectations, to a backdrop of the Payback Mix by James Brown, Rob Base and DJ Ez Rock - It takes Two, Double Trouble and the Rebel MC - Street Tuff...with the very end sampled from Chad Jackson and Hear the Drummer Get Wicked.
