Today (29th August) would have been Richard Attenborough's 100th birthday, but did you know he introduced records on the radio in the early 1950s?

Here's a short clip of Richard Attenborough's Record Rendezvous broadcast on the BBC Light Programme on 04/03/1950, found on the end of an old reel-to-reel tape.

Shame it's not a short clip from "Partners In Crime" in 1953 instead.
