1960-61

In this first episode, all-time comedy great Jimmy Tarbuck joins Lulu in the Rewind the 60s studio. Today we focus on 1960 and 1961, and Jimmy and Lulu recall the beginning of the decade. While Adam Faith and Roy Orbison were topping the charts, Jimmy was working as a Redcoat at Butlins: “at Butlins you learnt your trade”, he tells Lulu, and reveals that even as he was starting out as a performer, his real ambition was to become a professional footballer.
