About this product

Product Information

For seventy years now Desert Island Discs has managed that rare feat to be both enduring and relevant. By casting away the biggest names of the day in science, business, politics, showbiz, sport and the arts, it presents a cross-sectional snapshot of the times in which we live. As the decades have passed, the programme has kept pace; never frozen in time yet always, somehow, comfortingly the same. Kirsty Young BBC Radio 4 s Desert Island Discs celebrates its seventieth birthday in 2012. Since the programme s deviser Roy Plomley interviewed comedian Vic Oliver in January 1942, nearly 3,000 distinguished people from all walks of life have been stranded on the mythical island, accompanied by only eight records, one book and a luxury. Here the story of one of BBC Radio 4 s favourite programmes is chronicled through a special selection of castaways. Roy Plomley, inventor of the programme as well as its presenter for over forty years, quizzes the young Cliff Richard about these rather frenzied movements the 1960s pop sensation makes on the stage. Robert Maxwell tells Plomley s successor Michael Parkinson that I will have left the world a slightly better place by

    • A good history

      This book was a birthday present to my wife. Lovely history of the Desert Island discs programmes. We are very curious about the ripped out 4 pages in the book. Could Tony Blair have vetoed something? There is a name crossed out in the index. It could be Tony Blair. My wife enjoyed the book. Thank you.

      I'm enjoying the book and also being made adware of some excellent music I've not heard before.
