Rare Lennon interview
« on: September 25, 2005, 06:50:41 PM »
Lennon tops new Radio 4 season

Owen Gibson, media correspondent
Thursday September 22, 2005
The Guardian


A previously unheard interview with John Lennon, a 90-part history of the British empire and new programmes from Alan Bennett and Dawn French were among the eclectic highlights of BBC Radio 4's autumn season unveiled yesterday.
Controller Mark Damazer also announced a weekly profile slot on Saturday evenings at 7pm, a weekly obituary programme on Friday afternoons, and a new presenter for Great Lives, the former Tory MP Matthew Parris.

He said: "I want Radio 4 to be even more responsive and agile, to give the audience the best possible platform from which to reflect on the passing week."

Frank Gardner, the BBC security correspondent who was shot and seriously injured in Saudi Arabia, will present a new series, Faces of Islam. He was described as "a major Radio 4 talent to come".

For a season of programmes marking 25 years since Lennon's death, the station will broadcast a "painstakingly emotional" interview conducted by Jann Wenner, the founder of Rolling Stone magazine.

Bits and pieces were used in the Anthology DVD. I can't wait to hear the full interview.

The first UK broadcast of excerpts from a 1970 interview Lennon himself referred to as "definitive" is to go out on BBC Radio 4 on 3 December as part of a series of programmes across BBC radio.
The interview with Rolling Stone magazine founder Jan Wenner took place shortly after the Beatles split.

Lennon documents the group's career and parting and speaks of his strained relationship with Paul McCartney.
