Storyteller. Activist. Superstar. This is the story of Sting. Vernon Kay is your guide to one of British music’s most individual artists. In Episode One, you’ll hear the stories, and the music, that shaped Sting’s early life. From the terraces of Wallsend to Punk-era London, where a single phone call changed his destiny forever. Told in Sting’s own words through the BBC archive, and featuring brand new interviews with friends, fans and collaborators, you’ll get to know the man behind the name. A Cup and Nuzzle Production. Written and produced by Joe Foley.
