The pre-TV early 60s were the heyday of commercial radio and saw the birth of personalities such as 'Cham the Man' (Neville Chamberlain), who hosted hit shows such as 'Take a Break' and 'Gather Round'.

'Cham the Man' worked with advertising director John Gimson, and recording technician 'Rocky' Duche. With the help of the hits and the jingles, they remember the time when commercial radio was king.

Produced by Jack Perkins.
