It isn't. They're something called Sunday Love Songs' Extra. I believe they're 30 minutes long and will be airing in the middle of the night like other Sounds content.

The 7-9pm slot on the 21st-24th August has been renamed 'Steve Wright's Summer Nights'.

Interesting that Wynne Evans is covering Owain, do we know if he's been on R2 before? (my dad listens to him on Radio Wales)

Did a google theres no reference to him presenting on radio 2 but unsure about guesting. Issue is with him sort of name sharing with Owain Wynne Evans who he is sitting in for it does make it harder to raid internet for any archive source of possible previous presenting jobs
