Just a couple of weeks ago, I wrote an article asking whether the BBC should bring back Top Of The Pops. The question was prompted by The Ting Tings mourning the killing off of the program, and since then, the fight to save the show from perpetual obscurity has been ramped up.

It’s definitely happening, it’s just a matter of who will be involved. Yes, the long running saga of whether Led Zeppelin will properly reform and embark on a tour seems to be almost over, with bassist John Paul Jones confirming the band, with the exception of Robert Plant, are working together again.

While there are currently only eight gigs on the agenda, they’re all at huge venues, including two dates in Manchester and one each at Slane Castle, Dublin, […]
