Jack London played the piano for Binnie Barnes in the film of Cavalcade, and cinema-goers may also remember that he had one of the leading parts in Old Bones of the River. As a sprinter he held the 100-metres record, and his first Midland broadcast was a talk on training for the Olympic Games. Although he was born in British Guiana he spent part of his school-days in Birmingham.
