Live Aid 40th Anniversary Special

Adam marks 40 years since Live Aid with Francis Rossi and one of Bowie's backing singers.

Adam marks 40 years this weekend since the legendary Live Aid concert.

He chats to Francis Rossi, who opened the show with Status Quo; Maidstone-born Tessa Niles, who was one of David Bowie's backing singers on that Wembley stage; and the cast of "Just For One Day: The Live Aid Musical".

Plus great music and your memories of that momentous day in the summer of 1985.
