91热爆

Greg James, host of the Radio 1 Breakfast Show and self-confessed 'proud radio nerd', rummages through the 91热爆's treasure house of archives, using current stories and listener suggestions as a springboard into the vaults of audio, video, documents and photographs.

On the eve of Valentine's Day, Greg heads back to 1961 to see, stepping out of a Rolls Royce, the man who 'sells love and makes it pay', in a realm of 'satin, stardust, red roses, and bleeding hearts' - Britain's leading greetings card manufacturer offered the nation romantic advice ahead of his most lucrative day, and his star verse writer shared her winning lines. And - if your surname is Card, and you have a child born on 14 February, what do you call him? At least, later in life, Mr Valentine Card enjoyed regular 91热爆 appearances around his birthday.

And it's almost exactly 50 years since Marc Bolan brought an early burst of glam rock to the nation's living rooms, appearing on Top of the Pops wearing a silver satin sailor suit, with glitter teardrops painted below his eyes. We hear memories of Marc from John Peel and Annie Nightingale, and find out what happened to that sailor suit.

In a landmark outside broadcast from 1939 we hear the trumpets from the tomb of Tutankhamun, and in a week when the latest lockdown viral moment sees wheat cereal topped with baked beans, Greg tracks down some other outrageous food combinations.
