Amy Winehouse has asked her father, Mitch, is she can appear on his radio show next month as an agony aunt, it's been claimed.

Mr Winehouse is co-hosting a show on BBC Radio London while the programme's regular host, Danny Baker, is on holiday.

And apparently Winehouse is keen to offer advice and share her experiences with listeners.

“Amy has always been nifty with the advice. Although she often gets herself into pickles, she is very honest, very caring and very perceptive when it comes to dealing with other people’s problems,” a source told the Daily Star.

“Like the rest of us, she’s sick of all her problems being on everyone else’s lips and really wants to focus on other people for a change.

“It will work well, as long as listeners refrain from the obvious temptation of asking her questions about herself. And she can help her dad pick some tracks while she’s there.”

As previously reported, Mr Winehouse was asked to co-host the show after his regular appearances as a phone-in guest.

His show will air on September 1st.
