Frank Sinatra stars in our 'fab 5' and we return to 1979 for the 'mystery year'

Late night music with the mystery year and Fab 5. Call 0845 30 50 007 (local rate).

In our 'mystery year' of 1979 ‘To the manor born’ was on television and starred Penelope Keith and Peter Bowles. Penelope Keith played the part of Audrey Forbes-Hamilton but what was the name of the character played by Peter Bowles ?

Can you guess what Roller Robbie has been up to by listening to the 'mystery sound clue'? If it follows form it will end in disaster !

In the 'tenuous tunes' we play songs about 'children' linked to on this day in 1997, when a British Airways pilot and co-pilot were suspended, after allowing a 5 year old girl to operate the controls of a Boeing 757 airliner on its way to the South of France from Heathrow.
