Peggy Sue Got Reinterpreted

Jon Snow Presenter

I don’t often get to sing on Channel 4 News. But last night, stirred by the appearance of Alvin Stardust on the 50th anniversary of Buddy Holly’s death, I found myself doing just that.

Mr Stardust had a guitar which dated from his own encounter with the bespectacled rock legend. And the rest is replay.

    “I don’t often get to sing on Channel 4 News. But last night…”

    The whole thing is etched painfully on my memory. I wish it would go away.

    It was chuckle inducing, Jon. Charming. What fun! I was having little heart attacks while he mentioned all the names that had autographed the guitar.
