The game's question
Read each clue out loud and pause as soon as a voice comes back.
November 1952. Long before the pop idols, a voice on the wireless in the corner of the room. On 14 November the very first British singles chart came out, and at the top stood ‘Here in My Heart’. It stayed there for nine weeks, right through Christmas. Who sang that very first number one? Circle the right name between you.
- Al Martino
- Johnnie Ray
- Dickie Valentine
Need a hint?
Only two letters in his first name. Hum softly, as if the wireless were turned down low, and see what comes.
See the answer
Answer: Al Martino – ‘Here in My Heart’, the very first number one, in 1952.
Why this game : The wireless of childhood comes back with a single name – and with it the room where the family sat to listen.
