Sports Report, the iconic radio programme with its distinctive theme tune Out Of The Blue is celebrating 60 years on BBC Radio.
"So, you're out of the ground on a cold Saturday afternoon, into the car, and switch on Radio 5. The presenter says, "it's five o'clock, and time for "Sports Report", and everything feels a bit better.....

It's that music they've been playing for 60 years plus the classified results in that unique style of intonation, well you know it's been a draw after the home team score has been read.
There is Radio 5Live programme about it tomorrow, and hopefully it will be available on BBC Listen Again for a week.
