The Desert Island Discs Show represents the idea of "what discs would you choose if you were cast away on a desert island?". The show hosts some characters who discussed their choices of the discs if they were in that situation. the main characters were: Angie Hobbs the Professor of the Public Understanding of Philosophy at the University of Sheffield, Dame Wendy Hall Fellow of both the Royal Academy of Engineering and the Royal Society, the writer Malcolm Gladwell, and the novelist Zadie Smith. Those characters were interviewed by Kristy Young the host of Desert island discs show. Kristy Young designed the show this way (choosing 8 discs) if they were alone in a desert island to find out what social events happened in their lives and in this way the guest will choose the discs that influenced his/her life. Each character chose 8 songs to have if they were alone in the desert island. The characters choices of these songs were according to a relevant event that happened in their lives and the show discusses the growing up of each character to know the reason why they made those choices, and each of those discs was represented in different times of their lives. Kristy young interests were mostly on four main things in the characters lives, the first one was the "growing up" of the guest, the childhood, whether he/she came from a wealthy or a poor family and what things effected the character in childhood, second thing Kristy interested in was the religious background. third thing was the education of the guest and environment that he/she got this education from, last thing was the social life status of the guest, whether the guest was married or not, had children, and if he didn't what were the reasons . The characters had a variable answers to Kristy's question ,for Angie Hobbs her childhood began roughly by the death of her disabled young sister, and she was only 11 years old, this effected some of her discs choices, but for Zadie Smith
