Anyone else fondly remember Brian Matthew's long-running BBC Radio 2 programme Round Midnight? From 11pm to 1am every weeknight for years, starting in January 1978, with loads of arts interview/chats, usually four each night. The chat tended to the lightweight but the guests came from a very wide range of the arts including all types of theatre, and Brian Matthew always sounded genuinely and warmly interested in his subjects and guests and was keen to support all their arts activity by making it much more widely known about via his radio programme.
The reason I've been recollecting this is that Brian Matthew is returning to present the final Sounds of the Sixties this Saturday morning (8 to 10am) and the programme will look back at his 27 years with the show.
