Gorgeous Sound Radio reporters Amy and Susan were back with our friends at the Commonwealth Secretariat at the stunning Marlborough House in London, allegedly on the pretext of endorsing celebrations for “60 years of Human Rights”. It is also fair to say their enthusiasm for the mission was clearly enhanced at the promise of close proximity to fit men and women in grass skirts. Yes those wonderful Polynesian dancers our friends from a previous Sound Radio visit, were amongst a diverse and wonderful array of talent from all corners of the globe.

In amongst the interviews with artistes and commonwealth representatives catch Amy and Susan – almost speechless (almost!) as some young ladies clearly impress our dynamic duo with their grasp and respect for the progress of Human Rights over the last sixty years.

At Sound Radio we’ve said it before - it’s not all guns and knives when it comes to young people in London- well done Amy and Susan for capturing a really rather touching moment - and well done for behaving yourselves with the Polynesian dancers (no complaints at time of going to press).

Sound Radio – Still A Positive Voice from East London at The Number One Centre – for a number of reasons.
