Pan's People - Our Story by Babs Lord
Between 1968 and 1976 the undisputed highlight of Top of the Pops was its nubile dance troupe Pan's People. In the era before music videos this legendary group and their choreographer Flick Colby filled in for absent bands. In the process they become better remembered than many of the records they danced to. Now, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Top of the Pops, Babs, Cherry, Dee Dee and Ruth - the surviving members of the classic line-up - are going to tell their remarkable story. This is a compelling, surprising and ultimately moving memoir from eyewitnesses to the golden age of pop music.
Babs Powell (nee Lord) is a charity fundraiser and adventurer, and lives in London with her husband, actor Robert Powell. Cherry Dickins (nee Gillespie) has worked as an actress and choreographer, and now sits on the board of Dancers Careers Development. Dee Dee Wilde co-founded the Nordorff-Robbins Music Therapy charity, and also founded the Dance Attic studios in London. Ruth Pearson co-managed dance groups Ruby Flipper and Legs and Co, and later worked in local government. Co-author Simon Barnard is a freelance writer and Sony Award-winning radio documentary maker.
