Talkabout
Thu 8th Mar 1979, 19:00 on BBC Radio 1 England
Tatkabout is a pop current affairs programme. It brings together a panel of under-20s, an expert or two, and the irrepressible Jonathan King to argue about various topical issues.
Famous voices from the world of pop add their views:
' I think the media can make you or destroy you and you remember what I'm saying.'
(MUHAMMAD ALI)
' Most of the things I got into trouble for were abstract things, like looking as if I'd not had enough sleep.'
(JOHN COOPER CLARKE )
The whole battle is refereed by Cindy Kent
Producer SUZAN DAVIES
(If you'd like to be a panellist, drop a line to Talkabout, BBC, London [Postcode removed]. saying what your interests are.)

Those Musical Years with Valerie Monese
Freddie Williams and the LONDON THEATRE ORCHESTRA leader REGINALD LEOPOLD conducted by ALEXANDER FARIS 1930 and 1950 The end of the airships and the end of rationing. In 1930 the R101 disaster at Beauvais halted all air-ship developments in Britain: and in 1950 milk, petrol, soap and many foods became unrestricted for the first time since the war. In 1930 Amy Johnson flew to Australia and the Australian batsman Don Bradman made his first visit to England. In 1950 the West Indies won the test series against England and the Coronation Stone was stolen from Westminster Abbey. 1930 was the year of Private Lives, starring the author, Noel Coward , and Gertrude Lawrence. In 1950 Carousel packed them in at Drury Lane.

First to Last: The Carpenters Hit File and Our Tune
Of Our Tune. SIMON BATES says, ' 'It was all Ron Belchier 's idea and to be honest I thought we'd get nothing but sloppy love stories, but the variety's been amazing. Lots of romantic tales but others too, like the pregnant lady who nicknamed her late-arriving " bump
Harry (Hurry Up Harry) or the snow-bound coach load from Chard in Somerset who missed a panto in Bristol and Take Me Home Country Roads was playing on the coach radio. (Don't worry, we got them tickets for this year!) '
