Thursday Theme: Iconic Duos

Jo has the Thursday Theme: iconic duos, to celebrate the anniversary of Tom & Jerry.

Jo has the Thursday Theme: iconic duos, to celebrate the anniversary of Tom & Jerry.

On 10th February 1940, the Tom & Jerry TV show first hit our screens. Whilst there have been a number of reprisals and revamps, the original run included 114 shorts, produced by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera between 1940 and 1958.

During those 18 years, the show won 7 academy awards for best animated short film, establishing it in joint first place for the most awards won in the category.

In honour of the infamous pair鈥檚 birthday, Jo will be playing half an hour of iconic duos! It could be a famous collaboration; lyrics that refer to a classic tale of 2 foes, or even your favourite duet to perform at karaoke!

Whether you love the Carpenters, Simon and Garfunkel, or Jay Z and Beyonce, send all your favourite duets and classic pairings to jo.whiley@bbc.co.uk
