Sunday Delight – 5th April

7th April 2026
Posted by Ros Connors

An exciting week this week dear listener as the Artemus II mission, with a crew of four, makes its way to the Moon to bring us back some nice close-up pictures of the far side. It’s also Easter, so I do hope you’re enjoying some rest this weekend and chilling out a handpicked selection of songs, just for you. In the ‘Retro Rewind’ I will take you on a trip back to 1981 when Buck’s Fizz won the Eurovision Song Contest for the UK in Dublin. I also chatted with Cheryl Baker, who told me how the group came together, and who choreographed the classic bir with the skirts.

Enjoy!
