It’s Easter
time and over the weekend there’s the second Help a London Child charity
auction. Helping out with proceedings on Saturday from 9 a.m. are some very
familiar names, whether or not you lived in the London area: Roger Scott, Dave
Cash, Kenny Everett, Joan Shenton, Tommy Vance (with that moustache looking for
all the world like some South American bandit!), Ian Davidson and Adrian Love.
Apparently
Kenny initially saw the campaign as “an unwelcome diversion”, according to the
recent biography Hello Darlings! “It
wasn’t that Kenny was uncharitable, he simply didn’t appreciate how much of an
impact radio could have in raising funds and awareness. He assumed it was just
tokenism. Once converted, he went on to become one of Help a London Child’s
most fervent campaigners, and would spend days preparing special episodes of
Captain Kremmen”.
Looking after Easter Sunday were Graham Dene,
Tony Myatt, those two smoothies Michael Aspel and Gerald Harper and rounding
off with Ev and Nicky Horne
