'My Music' was that rare thing, a programme that didn't
dumb-down, yet didn't condescend.

[Mysteryman]

Funniest thing about My Music was Frank Muir's "singing". The whole prog was a clever way of bringing musical knowledge to a wide audience without teaching.

I once literally bumped into Steve Race on Tottenham Court Rd nearly 30 years ago. He tripped over an uneven paving stone and fell into me and a colleague. He was extremely apologetic - we told him he should sue the council at which he laughed, saying he doubted Ken Livingstone could afford it.

With little Patsy Kensit I believe, her first TV appearance. Obviously, her pod has been popped a few times since then, bless her.
