Happy 2024 from London!!
No tracklist this year, but the soundtrack marked the Coronation of our new monarch, 75 years of the NHS, 75 years since the arrival of Empire Windrush and 10 years since same-sex marriage became legalised. It features a recorded message from His Majesty King Charles III, as well as readings by Sadiq Khan, Dame Helen Mirren, Bella Ramsey, Stephen Fry, Joanna Lumley, George the Poet and Baroness Floella Benjamin - and an eclectic selection of music including bhangra, k-pop and reggaeton, alongside global and British pop classics including the Spice Girls, Calvin Harris featuring Tom Grennan, Rema & Selena Gomez, Lulu, Beyoncé, Louis Armstrong, Fifty Fifty, Jasmine Sandlas, Dua Lipa, The Kinks and Gala.

DeleteI knew it! I knew it was Stephen Fry. Great to hear him. His alternative Christmas message for channel four was wonderful too
ReplyDeleteAlso I'd love to echo what the Mistress just said, I always look forward to reading your blog
Stephen Fry is more of a national treasure than King Charles is, tbh!
DeleteThank you. Jx
