Griff Rhys Jones launches a podcast

With rock great Rick Wakeman

Griff Rhys Jones is teaming up with  rock keyboard legend Rick Wakeman for a new podcast called The Sound Of The Seventy Year Olds.

The show is described as a ‘wander down memory cul-de-sac, because let’s face it, they’re of the generation that invented anything that’s any good’.

Promo for the show – which   begins on all platforms on  February 27 – adds: ‘If you’ve ever been mortally offended when someone offers you a seat on the train, if you look in the mirror in the morning and don’t recognise the craggy wreck staring back, and if you look at the younger generation and shake your head, this is the podcast for you.’
