Celebrating stars whose records were first heard in the 1950s, using 成人论坛 Light Programme and Radio Luxembourg archive. Desmond remembers Edmund Hockridge and Adam Faith.

Desmond Carrington continues to celebrate icons of the 50s, using words and music from the 成人论坛 and Radio Luxembourg archives.

Each one-hour programme features stars interviewed by John Hannam and this week's show features the Canadian baritone and actor Edmund Hockridge and Adam Faith, who was born Terry Nelhams in Acton, London.
