Tina Turner – A life well lived

Mark Knopfler, Beverley Knight and Bonnie Greer on the trailblazer who led without an example to follow.

In this episode of our 5 Minutes On podcast, people who knew Tina Turner share their personal reflections with the ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ’s Kirsty Wark. From humble beginnings, and with trauma along the way, Tina Turner went on to sell more than 100 million records and won 12 Grammys.

Mark Knopfler, Beverley Knight and Bonnie Greer reflect on a woman who rose to the very top, and paved the way for future stars.

As Bonnie Greer says: β€œThere would be no Beyonce, there would be no Taylor Swift, there would be no Madonna, without Tina Turner.”

This episode is part of our podcast series, β€œLives Well Lived”, available on ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Sounds, and as a documentary on ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ iPlayer.
