A Musicians' Union dispute blacked out the recording of a BBC Christmas show by Andy Williams at Warwick University. Musicians refused to play for him and 1,300 fans were told the show was cancelled.

And Midlands-born comedian Lenny Henry, who was also due to have been in the show, stayed on to add another 25-minute act. 18th October 1981 (b/w photo)
