The Story of Lily Allen

Radio 1 explores the highs and lows of the chart-topping career of Lily Rose Cooper, otherwise known as Lily Allen.

Greg James looks back over the life and career of Lily Allen, fresh from meeting her backstage at Radio 1's Big Weekend. Using this as a starting point, he delves into the archives to see how far she's come both musically and in her personal life.

From her first ever live session for Radio 1 on Gilles Peterson's show back in 2006, to hosting Jo Whiley on her dad's houseboat, to the cosy chat she had in 2009 with Annie Nightingale, we hear how she's been open and honest right from the start. And we discover how that honesty has got her into trouble over the years.

Exploring the highs and lows of a chart-topping career, this is the story of Lily Rose Cooper, otherwise known as Lily Allen.
