Early in 1981, four complete strangers sat in the drawing room of a house in Fulham and were told: “you are now Bucks Fizz”.

With over 20 singles released over the next few years including 3 number ones, “My Camera Never Lies”, “Land Of Make Believe” and of course, “Making Your Mind Up”, they sold in excess of 15 million records, spending 219 weeks in the UK charts alone, appearing on “A Song for Europe” on 11th March 1981, and winning the “Song For Europe” and “Eurovision Song Contest 1981” !

Over the years, each member of Bucks Fizz went their own way but in 2008, Cheryl, Mike and Jay were reunited for a television show, “Pop Goes The Band” and they can now be seen at festivals, eighties weekends, private functions etc, regularly throughout the UK and beyond.

2015 will be their busiest for years with countless retro festivals in the diary, plus the 40-date “Paradise Regained” tour of the UK and Europe, followed by Australia.

Cheryl, Mike and Jay, Formerly of BUCKS FIZZ are to appear at the Chequer Mead Theatre, East Grinstead on Saturday, 29th November.

Cheryl very kindly took time out to talk with Chrissy M:

SUSY Radio introduces the Remembrance Service:

This year Susy Radio visited Horley to remember the fallen.
The centenary year of World War One but none the less all the fallen from many conflicts were remembered at 11am with the two minute silence.

Heavy rain on the Saturday meant the ground at 6am was sodden which prevented the Outside Broadcast unit being located as
intended.
However quick thinking by our engineer and an onsite rethink saved the day with all the cabling installed in good time with a moment to link to the studio and complete a run through with presenter David Jay just after 9.30am.

The unit located on the roadside verge still allowed good access for pedestrians and remarkably had good vision of the proceedings.
The live broadcast commenced at exactly 1045am. For the next 56minutes David Jay became the eyes of the listener, story teller and narrator.
Many facts were mentioned as confirmed by local historians and
societies, whose assistance was brilliant.

Your broadcast team were:

Studio:
Breakfast presenter and outside broadcast technical operator – Chris Spring
Studio engineer – Jude Reynolds

Outside Broadcast Unit:
Presenter – David Jay
Outside Broadcast Engineer – Neil Munday
Equipment supplied free by- Outdoor Sound Company
