On Episode 29 the guest is one of rugby’s most recognizable personalities, Doddie Weir.

Doddie earned 61 caps for Scotland during a successful playing career, represented the British and Irish Lions on their successful tour to South Africa in 1997, and won championships with his two club sides, Melrose and Newcastle Falcons.

A talented, committed and athletic lock forward, Doddie is now facing his biggest challenge.

In June 2017 the Scot revealed he was suffering from Motor Neurone Disease.

In November 2017 Doddie and his Trustees launched the registered charity My Name’5 Doddie Foundation.

Its aims are simple:
- To raise funds to aid research into the causes of Motor Neurone Disease and investigate potential cures.
- To make grants to individuals suffering from MND, to enable them to live as fulfilled a life as possible.

Like all guests on the show Doddie chooses 5 songs that motivate him and that he's grown up with and still loves to this day. He keeps Graeme on his toes for the full show and is thoroughly entertaining company.
