White Wine Question Time
Something from the Cellar: George Michael
•
Currently, the coveted Christmas no.1 spot is held by legendary duo Wham! thirty years after ‘Last Christmas’ was released. So we thought it no better time to celebrate one half of the era-defining double act: George Michael.
These are some of our favourite George Michael stories we’ve heard on the show, including how Aled Jones ended playing rounders with him while at Bob Geldof’s wedding - scarcely believable. Elsewhere, Martin and Shirlie Kemp reminisce about how George ended up joining them on their first date and TV stalwarts Richard and Judy look back on how he ended up at theirs for Sunday lunch!
