Kevin will be hearing African-caribbean recollections about VE Day. We also find out about a Somerset woman who has been sponsoring children in Mombasa to go to school. Kevin will speak to writer Emy Onuora who has published "Pitch Black", a history of black British footballers and their experiences in the game. It has interviews with many black footballers and includes the results of a survey to find the best black British eleven. Plus, we'll get reaction in the West at the passing of Hot Chocolate front-man Errol Brown who died this week at the age of 71. The band made Number One in the charts in 1977 with "So You Win Again," and had more than 20 top 40 hits including "You Sexy Thing" and "It Started With A Kiss".
