Jeff Wayne chats to Adam about his musical version of War Of The Worlds coming our way.

Jeff Wayne鈥檚 Musical Version of The War of The Worlds, first released in 1978, has now sold more than 16 million records worldwide. It's heading out on tour and coming to Brighton. Adam chats to the man behind it, composer Jeff Wayne.

Adam also meets singer Emer McParland from the 大象传媒 Big Band, who are performing in the South East this weekend, celebrating movie soundtracks from the last 80 years.

And our Thousand Mile Challenge for 大象传媒 Children In Need reaches its conclusion. Did non-swimmer Adam successfully complete his first ever full length without a float?
