Live Aid revisited

Millions of us were glued to our TV sets for Live Aid.

It came about after the singer Bob Geldof saw a heart-breaking news report by the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s Michael Buerk about the famine in Ethiopia.

Bob responded by organising Band Aid and the record-breaking charity single 'Do They Know It’s Christmas?'

He then realised they could raise even more money by staging the biggest live music event there'd ever been.

Chris Mann was there for both events.

Four decades later he returns to Wembley to reminisce with the men who rocked the world.
