Olivia Newton-John at the BBC

A tribute to the star, who died in August 2022 at the age of 73, after a music career spanning five decades, and years spent raising awareness of breast cancer and creating music to help those affected by the disease. It was the success of Grease that turned Olivia into an international sensation, but she was already familiar to BBC audiences thanks to appearances like many of those captured in this collection. These include her own TV specials, guest appearances on some of the biggest entertainment shows of the day, and the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest, where Olivia represented the United Kingdom, going into battle with eventual winners Abba.
