Introduced by Rod McLennan The sound of movie music Produced by IAN FENNER
It looks like a radio takeover by television. Two top television personalities are extending their current activities by moving over to radio to present two brand-new programmes about the cinema. From tonight, Crackerjack's Rod McLennan highlights the sound of movie music in Rod's Round-Up; and starting tomorrow at 9.30 pm on Radio 2. Tony Bilbow of BBC2's Line-Up will be the host of a new film programme, Sound Screen 69. This replaces the long-running Movie-Go-Round, and as the title suggests, the accent will be on up-to-the-minute presentation of current and possible future trends in the cinema.
