Should be on BBC iplayer, at about 6.50am I think. R&R showed their usual tact - the BBC showed three brief clips of the videos of latest singles and a co-presenter asked them, given the length of their career, how they feel watching these old videos again!

Ha ha, l noticed that too Andy.....almost as good as the BBC Radio Scotland presenter telling Russell how much she loved Sparks and then calling him Ron......(ah well ,we're all human)
The interview was on BBC Breakfast at 7.50 this morning.....the first of many l'm sure.

It was a pleasant, unexpected surprise to see Ron & Russell up so early but clearly Nana Munchety had no idea about their music career or about the new album. The usual questions that were allowed to be asked in tv interviews were asked ready for the rehearsed replies which will be repeated for anymore interviews in the future.
I hope the Q&A next week at tbe Union Chapel will be an open to the audience free mic affair & not the prepared questions & answers like were heard at the premier of The Sparks Brothers movie.

The quality is not great, but for us overseas people it's such a treat!
