Today Lulu is Rewinding back to the years 1962 and 1963. These were the years when the world held its breath during the Cuban Missile Crisis, and when the assassination of President Kennedy shocked the everyone. Closer to home, the establishment was being shaken by the Profumo affair and the new satirists behind That Was The Week that Was. Today it is Sanjeev Bhaskar, currently starring in the BBC’s 60s period-drama The Indian Doctor, who joins Lulu in the Rewind the 60s studio. Sanjeev explains how his parents were a lot like the characters in his series: economic migrants who came to these shores and experienced a welcome that showed the British at their best and their worst. As we focus on the years 1962 and 1963, we meet Daman and Chand, a couple originally from India who were among the 100,000 people who managed to beat a crackdown on immigration that was introduced in 1962. Together, they made a new and successful life for themselves in Coventry.

Today, Lulu is joined by DJ and broadcaster Tony Blackburn in the Rewind the 60s studio, and the two share their memories of 1966 and 1967. It was the age of psychedelia, flower power, and free love, and for Tony especially these were momentous times. A successful pirate radio DJ, Tony had an offer to come ashore and join a new BBC radio station just starting up. It was to be known as Radio 1. He tells Lulu about the experience of first walking into the BBC: everyone was in hippy gear while he turned up wearing a suit and tie. His stint on the new Radio 1 breakfast show broke new ground in broadcasting, and within a matter of weeks Tony was the most famous DJ in Britain.
