Thanks Helen. I'm recording all of them.
The tribute to Brian was first broadcast in 2014 according to my TV (the radio part...) and also to the Radio 2 website.

Listened to Tim Rice's tribute to Peter Skellern yesterday,Helen, and what a lovely,sincere tribute it is...
You're A Lady is such a beautiful song.... his arrangements,choirs and brass bands are so lush and lovely....not forgetting his lovely voice..
This song was mentioned in the programme. It's a parody of Peter's style by Victoria Wood.

I listened to the lot a couple of weeks ago, so thanks, Helen. I thought the Jake Thackray was superb. They were all good. _________________ life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans |

I've not heard the Peter Skellern one so thanks for the reminder Becky! I'll record it for when I've got some time and nothing to listen to.
