Comments
* Pete's 753rd show (Apple Radio 4pm - 7pm GMT) Struggled through this chart, Outtakes at the end of main version.
* Tuesday at 4pm on www.appleradio.co.uk two classic charts from the same week, both sides of the atlantic as we celebrate The 70th Birthday of the first "official" UK singles charts and take a look at what was happening in the USA at the same moment.
* Patti Page & Eddie Fisher Both one sided hits at USA 13 & 12, flips to other hits in the chart, paired back up later in the chart.
* I started the show early off air around 3.56pm and 21 seconds and by the time i was on air 4.02pm and 36 seconds I was partway through the Ford Ad, the idea was that i'd save time to make it all fit on air, that did not go to plan, as I ran over by 10 mins the USA No.1 wasn't broadcast.
