I guess most of the UK Lovehounds must still be on holiday as this seems to
be the first mention of this programme.

Yes the song was written by Kate (the credits at the end confirmed this).
The song was played twice (at least - I missed the start of the programme)
once during the programme and then again over the credits. The vocal parts
were just accompanied by the acoustic guitar but these were followed by
short instrumental breaks were more instruments joined in. Although it
was quite short I thought Kate's voice was on good form and I enjoyed the
"twnagy" guitar accompaniment. WOuld have made a good B-side for a Xmas
single.
