Parkinson Music Special
Saturday 24 November 2007 10:55pm - 12:10am on ITV1.
Alongside these classic clips that have not been seen on air in over 30 years we have exclusive performances in the studio from Annie Lennox, Jamie Cullum and Joe Cocker. Rod Stewart and Michael Buble will also be in the studio performing tracks, singing an exclusive duet together and talking to Michael.
Parkinson starts the show by giving an insight into how the famous theme tune was composed, along with showing how the very first episode looked way back in 1971.
In between the chat and performances in the studio, Parkinson will introduce personally selected music highlights from over the years.
Additional highlights include a drunken Sir Peter Ustinov singing opera with Dudley Moore, Elton John playing pub songs on a pub piano with Parky and Sir Michael Caine singing along and finally a classic duet with Bing Crosby and Parkinson himself.
The final two specials, including the final ever episode, air in December.
