Virgin Radio UK is delighted to announce that it will broadcast a brand new two-part documentary on Band Aid at 40. Made with the full support of - and with a percentage of the total production budget being paid directly to - the Band Aid Trust and Gimme Sugar Productions, the documentary was given access to their archive and the multi-track recordings from the biggest moment in British pop music history. “This small song became and remains what it always set out to be, an instrument of change. Our thanks to the Band Aid Trust, Virgin Radio and all the artists and contributors involved for giving us their time to retell the Band Aid story.”Band Aid at 40 will be produced for Virgin Radio by Ben Jones and Ian Callaghan for Gimme Sugar Productions, and will be supported by other News UK brands including Times Radio, Dublin’s Q102, The Times and The Sun. ***Picture credit: The Band Aid TrustENDS
