Ken Sykora interviews Bing

Here's a nice interview with Bing from the 1960s. See https://www.mixcloud.com/FiveFeet/ken-sykora-interviews-bing-crosby/

I assume this could be the broadcast of 1st August 1967, at 20:12 on the old "Light" programme, and repeated 21st December 1967, on Radio 4 at 16:05 and presumably recorded in the summer of 1967 when Bing was in London.

Incidentally, there is an ongoing project to digitise and place online a listing of all programmes broadcast by the BBC since 1923, covering all channels and both radio and TV. There are now 1,191 entries relating to programmes either about or featuring Bing. These include interviews, showings of the films, radio dramatisations and shows from US radio and TV networks, etc. There is no audio or video content - it is a straiht listing of programmes but it is an interesting browse. The BBC welcomes additions and corrections.

 - though I now see that there was a programme called "Be My Guest" on 14th January 1967 described as 
Bing Crosby says Be My Guest and in conversation with KEN SYKORA he recalls some of the music and artists from the early Thirties

Were they all the same? Who can accurately recall? I used to listen to Ken Sykora but I haven't a clue!
