Just finished listening to last night's show from Don and again another great selection of singers and composers.

We loved listening to Matt singing My Love and Devotion and we agree the arrangement by Johnnie Spence was great too. :D

He sometimes says "unforgettable". But he always says something good.

Well, if it does go on through to the New Year, we probably know what songs of Matt's Don will be playing. No prizes for guessing. :)

There is a Don Black documentary on BBC4 on January 3rd. Should be good.

Thanks for that info on Don Mike. That's something to pencil in. Although I haven't really looked at the Christmas TV programmes yet, I don't often get very excited about them :) and prefer the radio.
There is an "Open All Hours " programme that could be worth looking at, but not sure about anything else. :)

Well, I can't believe these co-incidents. Don is playing Matt's " Gonna Build A Mountain" . Nick Muir played this one on his programme this afternoon. He plays Matt every week.
By the way Robert, Don has just mentioned Matt....the unmatchable :wink: :lol: :lol:
