Beverley Knight

Reverend Kate Bottley and Jason Mohammad speak to Beverley Knight about her song of solidarity for the NHS and how she's staying positive during lockdown.

Reverend Kate Bottley and Jason Mohammad talk to soul singer and West End star Beverley Knight about her recent song of solidarity for those working in the NHS.

With many of her family working in healthcare, Beverley explains why her charity single, a cover of Bill Withers 'Lean on Me', is so close to her heart. Plus she shares stories from her gospel roots, how she's staying positive in lockdown and looks forward to her many upcoming projects when the world opens up again, including a brand new musical.

Plus as we mark the 75th anniversary of V.E. Day we hear reflections of those who were there as the Second World War ended in Europe.
