A landmark collection representing a unique discovery of 23 recordings made by Petula Clark CBE for various BBC Radio programmes between 1951 and 1961, including the long-running Calling All Forces in which Petula appeared as the resident featured artist. Almost all of the songs are unheard since their original transmission and this compilation ensures these historical broadcasts are not lost to history." www.renownfilms.co.uk/product/petula-clark-cd-dvd-20-combined-offer/
