My Music
My Music was a radio panel show which premiered on the
BBC Home Service on
January 3,
1967. It was a companion program to
My Word, and like that show featured comic writers
Denis Norden and
Frank Muir. It was also broadcast via the
BBC World Service. There was also a short television series on
BBC2.
My Music followed My Word! 's pattern of two teams of two competing in a series of challenges, based this time on music rather than words. Each episode featured a final round in which each contestant was required to sing a song, regardless of vocal ability.
The teams were
- 1957-1973: Ian Wallace and Denis Norden versus David Franklin and Frank Muir
- 1974-1993: Ian Wallace and Denis Norden versus John Amis and Frank Muir
The show was hosted for its entire run by composer Steve Race, who also set the challenges after an early period in which they were set by series creator Edward J. Mason.
The show, which ended in 1993, is still rerun in Australia.
