Radio 2 celebrates a master craftsman who has established many unique achievements over 50 years on air.

Radio 1 Breakfast presenter Greg James grew up with Bob’s famous whispering voice coming out of the radios at home, as his father Alan has been a fan from Bob’s first broadcast on Radio 1 on August 19th 1970 and his television career on The Old Grey Whistle Test, right through to Bob’s current work on Radio 2. They are firm friends through a love of cricket and music and have often attended gigs together with their families.

Greg talks in depth to Bob about his life, influences and passions and constant search for the next big thing.
