England's World Cup squad is in our 1970 'mystery year'

F is for Friday, fun and fantastic music with Nick Risby and Roller Robbie.

Tonight's 'mystery year' returns to 1970 when the England World Cup squad were knocked out of the competition, but went to number one in the charts. What was the title of the song ?

Bonanza is the TV theme tune.

Our novelty song tonight is Val Doonican – O’Raffertys motor car.

On this day in 1846, Elias Howe received a patent for his sewing machine so our 'tenuous tunes' are all to do with haberdashery which just happens to be one of Nick's favourite shops!
