Ten years ago, TMTG staged a concert that brought to the Armstrong Hall stage "Radio".  On Air, Again! brings the sight and sound of Television, from the 30 lines of John Logie Baird through to the high definition of the modern era. On the journey we will present big band classics, songs associated with the all time great television performers such as the late Cilla Black and pop classics synonymous with programmes such as "Top of the Pops". Join the "studio" audience at Thornbury's "television centre" for a night of variety entertainment.
