Simon appears on BBC1's 'The One Show'

5th November 2015


 

 

As Alexander Armstrong's Musical Director, Simon appeared live and led the band and on the BBC 1's 'The One Show'.  A natural in front of the cameras Simon enjoyed being in the limelight along with his twin brother, Marcus, playing on French Horn.

 

Also appearing were Sarah Freestone on violin, Amy May on viola, Steve Turner on keyboard and Nick Pugh on Bass.

 

Security was really tight due to the 5th of November masked protest, but once Simon got in he was surprised as it's a smaller studio than he's been used to in the past - it reminded him of 'The Big Breakfast' days!
