WATCH: Steve Allen Reads The News On LBC In 1979

Friday 12th December 2014

As Steve Allen celebrates 35 years at LBC, here is a rare early clip of Steve reading the news!

On 12th December 1979, Steve walked into the LBC studios in Gough Square and got a job reading the news "in a very butch voice".

In this clip from 2012's In Conversation With Steve Allen, James O'Brien asks him about how he got his job at LBC. The story is great and we've dug through the archive to find an early clip of Steve affecting that butch voice as he read the news.
