Johnnie meets Mick Jones, Paul Simonon and Topper Headon from original punk band, The Clash.

Johnnie Walker celebrates the decade of Margo, Tom and Jerry.
This week he's joined by Mick Jones, Paul Simonon and Topper Headon from original punk rockers The Clash. Formed in 1976 and headed up by Joe Strummer, the band were one of the most popular punk bands of the decade with hits including London Calling, I Fought The Law and White Riot.
Together with Johnnie, the band will cover their role in the seventies punk explosion, the genesis of their biggest hits and the lasting impact of their music on artists today.
Also on the show, the first Britons to reach the summit of Everest will be celebrated with sounds from the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ archive, and another classic seventies single will be added to Johnnie's Jukebox.
