3.50-4.5 Back to Hendon
4.5-4.10 One Mile Tandem National

At any time even during the Dance Music from 5.15 to 6.0 we may go over to Wimbledon or Lord's
This is a grand afternoon for sport. Who can broadcast a running commentary on cricket better than Howard Marshall , who is to describe the play in the first Test Match at Lord's ? Who can broadcast a running commentary on the Hendon Air Pageant better than Wing-Commander W. Hel morc, who described the Fly Past at Duxford on the occasion of King George's Jubilee and has described every Hendon Air Pageant that has been broadcast ? Then Colonel Brand and Captain Wakelam are unsurpassed at describing the lawn tennis championships at Wimbledon. And finally, an expert is to describe the cycling championships at Herne Hill.
