95 years since the BBCs first outside broadcast (a cellist playing a duet with a nightingale),
80 years since A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square,
5 years since a nightingale was last heard in Devon (not far from Lympstone), and
4 years since Harland Walshaw first gave the talk that told the story behind all these events, And a Nightingale Sang…
