0:04:30 > 0:04:32I suppose Noel and I have made a bit of a mistake.

0:04:32 > 0:04:34We're not doing a pantomime, so let's introduce you

0:04:34 > 0:04:37to some of the number ones that we've had over the last year.

0:04:37 > 0:04:39Here's Johnny Nash. Do you remember this one?

0:05:10 > 0:05:12# Baby

0:05:12 > 0:05:17# Every night I wake up crying

0:05:20 > 0:05:23# Tears on my pillow

0:05:23 > 0:05:26# Pain in my heart

0:05:26 > 0:05:30# You on my mind

0:05:34 > 0:05:40# I remember all the good times

0:06:18 > 0:06:19# You on my mind. #

0:06:26 > 0:06:33I'll always remember that day You promised to love me

0:06:33 > 0:06:36You said you'd love me to the very end

0:06:36 > 0:06:39# You can say that you want me, baby. #

0:06:39 > 0:06:42And I'll never forget

0:06:42 > 0:06:45I'll never forget when you walked away from me

0:06:45 > 0:06:49You walked out of my life with my very best friend

0:06:49 > 0:06:51# And you say that you love me

0:06:51 > 0:06:53# Oh, baby

0:06:53 > 0:06:55# Baby

0:06:55 > 0:07:00# Every night I wake up crying

0:07:40 > 0:07:42# I got tears on my pillow... #

0:07:42 > 0:07:43APPLAUSE

0:07:43 > 0:07:46Johnny Nash, of course and Tears On My Pillow.

0:07:46 > 0:07:491975, indeed, a year of musical contrasts,

0:07:49 > 0:07:52many different people at the top of the chart with many different acts.

0:07:52 > 0:07:55In fact, we had Bing Crosby, Vera Lynn, and Max Jaffa

0:07:55 > 0:07:57and of course, Windsor Davies and Don Estelle,

0:07:57 > 0:08:00no doubt enjoying a tremendous amount of popularity

0:08:00 > 0:08:02because of the BBC series, It Ain't Half Hot Mum.

0:08:02 > 0:08:04Here's that grass that whispers.

0:08:04 > 0:08:06APPLAUSE

0:08:10 > 0:08:16You promised me, green grass, not to tell what you 'eard

0:08:16 > 0:08:20Whispering grass, say you can't keep your word

0:08:20 > 0:08:23Keep your word - sing, Lofty.

0:08:23 > 0:08:30# Why do you whisper, green grass

0:08:30 > 0:08:35# Why tell the trees what ain't so

0:08:35 > 0:08:44# Whispering grass the trees don't have to know

0:08:44 > 0:08:49# No, no

0:08:49 > 0:08:55# Why tell them all your secrets

0:08:55 > 0:08:58# Who kissed there long ago

0:08:58 > 0:09:01# Mm-mm!

0:09:01 > 0:09:08# Whispering grass the trees don't need to know

0:09:08 > 0:09:12# Whispering grass the trees don't need to know

0:09:12 > 0:09:14# Bo-bo-bo boom

0:09:14 > 0:09:17- # Don't you tell it to the breeze, - Bo-boom

0:09:17 > 0:09:20- # Or she will tell the birds and bees- Bo-boom

0:09:20 > 0:09:23# And everyone will know

0:09:23 > 0:09:26# Because you told the blabbering trees

0:09:26 > 0:09:32# Yes, you told them once before

0:09:32 > 0:09:39# It's no secret any more

0:09:39 > 0:09:46# Why tell them all the old things

0:09:46 > 0:09:50# They're buried under the snow

0:09:50 > 0:09:52# Dum di dum, dum di dum

0:09:52 > 0:09:58# Whispering grass don't tell the trees

0:09:58 > 0:10:05# Cos the trees don't need to know. #

0:10:05 > 0:10:08Don't you tell it to the breeze,

0:10:08 > 0:10:12cos she will tell the birds and bees

0:10:12 > 0:10:14and everyone will know

0:10:14 > 0:10:17because you told the blabbering trees.

0:10:17 > 0:10:21Oh, yes, you told them once before

0:10:21 > 0:10:26and it is no secret any more -

0:10:26 > 0:10:28I will not have gossip in this jungle.

0:10:31 > 0:10:38# Why tell them all the old things

0:10:38 > 0:10:44# They're buried under the snow

0:10:44 > 0:10:50# Whispering grass don't tell the trees

0:10:50 > 0:10:55# Cos the trees don't need to know

0:10:55 > 0:10:59# Bo-bo-bo boom, bo-bo-bo boom. #

0:10:59 > 0:11:01APPLAUSE

0:11:01 > 0:11:04Ah, very nice, very colonial indeed. And Whispering Grass.

0:11:04 > 0:11:05Actually, talking of grass,

0:11:05 > 0:11:07do you know Pan's People are out in the garden?

0:11:07 > 0:11:09I had a little peep at them just now

0:11:09 > 0:11:11- and they were looking just a little - light-headed. Really? Yes.

0:11:11 > 0:11:14Actually, it's very frosty out there and they've Only Got Eyes For You.

0:11:14 > 0:11:18- Do you mind if I strangle you? - Certainly.- Shall I do it now?

0:11:22 > 0:11:27# My love must be a kind of blind love

0:11:29 > 0:11:36# I can't see anyone but you

0:11:55 > 0:12:00# Are the stars out tonight?

0:12:02 > 0:12:09# I don't know if it's cloudy or bright

0:12:09 > 0:12:17# I only have eyes

0:12:17 > 0:12:25# For you, dear

0:12:28 > 0:12:34# The moon may be high

0:12:34 > 0:12:42# But I can't see a thing in the sky

0:12:42 > 0:12:50# Cos I only have eyes

0:12:50 > 0:12:57# For you

0:12:59 > 0:13:11# I don't know if we're in a garden

0:13:16 > 0:13:27# Or on a crowded avenue

0:13:27 > 0:13:34# You are here

0:13:34 > 0:13:38# So am I

0:13:38 > 0:13:46# Maybe millions of people go by

0:13:46 > 0:13:53# But they all disappear

0:13:53 > 0:14:01# From view

0:14:01 > 0:14:08# And I only have eyes

0:14:08 > 0:14:16# For you. #

0:14:21 > 0:14:23APPLAUSE

0:14:26 > 0:14:29I suppose that's what they mean by glow-glow dancing.

0:14:29 > 0:14:30Amazing, the cost of living.

0:14:30 > 0:14:32This thing's going up in value the whole time.

0:14:32 > 0:14:35- What do you think of the show so far?- Rubbish!- Oh, well! Never mind.

0:14:35 > 0:14:37Ralph McTell's had a remarkably good year.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40He's had a super LP out and he's had some marvellous singles

0:14:40 > 0:14:43and here's the one which I suppose we most associate with him.

0:14:43 > 0:14:45MUSIC: Streets of London by Ralph McTell

0:14:51 > 0:14:54# Have you seen the old man

0:14:54 > 0:14:57# In the closed-down market

0:14:57 > 0:15:00# Kicking up the paper

0:15:00 > 0:15:04# With his worn-out shoes?

0:15:04 > 0:15:07# In his eyes you see no pride

0:15:07 > 0:15:10# Hand held loosely at his side

0:15:10 > 0:15:18# Yesterday's paper telling yesterday's news

0:15:18 > 0:15:24# So how can you tell me that you're lonely

0:15:24 > 0:15:29# And say for you that the sun don't shine?

0:15:31 > 0:15:33# Let me take you by the hand

0:15:33 > 0:15:37# And lead you through the streets of London

0:15:37 > 0:15:43# I'll show you something to make you change your mind

0:15:50 > 0:15:53# And have you seen the old girl

0:15:53 > 0:15:56# Who walks the streets of London

0:15:56 > 0:16:02# Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags?

0:16:02 > 0:16:05# She's no time for talking

0:16:05 > 0:16:09# She just keeps right on walking

0:16:09 > 0:16:14# Carrying her home in two carrier bags

0:16:16 > 0:16:23# So how can you tell me that you're lonely

0:16:23 > 0:16:28# And say for you that the sun don't shine?

0:16:30 > 0:16:33# Let me take you by the hand

0:16:33 > 0:16:36# And lead you through the streets of London

0:16:36 > 0:16:42# I'll show you something to make you change your mind

0:16:55 > 0:16:58# Have you seen the old man

0:16:58 > 0:17:02# Outside the Seaman's Mission

0:17:02 > 0:17:08# Memory fading with the medal ribbons that he wears

0:17:08 > 0:17:11# And in our winter city

0:17:11 > 0:17:15# The rain cries a little pity

0:17:15 > 0:17:18# For one more forgotten hero

0:17:18 > 0:17:21# And a world that doesn't care

0:17:22 > 0:17:30# So how can you tell me you're lonely

0:17:30 > 0:17:33# And say for you that the sun don't shine

0:17:36 > 0:17:39# Let me take you by the hand

0:17:39 > 0:17:42# And lead you through the streets of London

0:17:42 > 0:17:48# I'll show you something to make you change your mind. #

0:17:50 > 0:17:52APPLAUSE

0:17:53 > 0:17:54That's Ralph McTell.

0:17:54 > 0:17:57One thing I like about Christmas, all the sweets and everything,

0:17:57 > 0:17:59absolutely gorgeous. Would you like one? You would?

0:17:59 > 0:18:02Lovely, lovely Turkish delight. Haven't got many left.

0:19:16 > 0:19:20# The rivers turn in their beds

0:19:20 > 0:19:24# Flowers bloom where she treads

0:19:24 > 0:19:27# She turns an awful lot of heads

0:19:27 > 0:19:30# When she comes to town

0:19:30 > 0:19:32# Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

0:19:32 > 0:19:36# Miss Grace, when you walk by

0:19:36 > 0:19:40# You're the twinkle in my eye

0:19:40 > 0:19:43# No need to wonder why

0:19:43 > 0:19:46# I've fallen for you

0:21:34 > 0:21:36cos I wouldn't want to miss grace,

0:21:36 > 0:21:38cos that means I can now start eating this.
