Suffolk
In the last of the series,
John Howson returns to his adopted county where he began collecting material from traditional singers. In some areas of the county, John has revived the singing tradition and tonight we hear from some of his favourites.
In the depths of mid-Suffolk there's Tom Smith who is nearly 80 and still plays piano accordion in a band on Sunday nights; and in the resort of Southwold John "Dusso" Winter continues the rich singing tradition of the fishermen of the Suffolk coast.
