Richard Parker: Birmingham's been misrepresented

It's a big weekend of events in Birmingham coming up: Black Sabbath's final show at Villa Park and ELO's final 'Over and Out' concert at the Utilita Arena on Saturday and Sunday, and Billy Ocean is performing on Saturday at the BP pulse live at the NEC and Stevie Wonder at Utilita on Monday.

All these events in the West Midlands means there could be as many as 300,000 fans expected in the region - boosting the economy by up to £20 million according to the West Midlands Growth company.

Sarah Julian spoke to Mayor of the West Midlands Richard Parker about the attention on Birmingham.
