Dire Straits' bassist 'made in Bromsgrove'

Discover how it was Worcestershire where John Illsley first found an obsession for guitar music, or as his housemaster would say, 'John's infernal banjo'.

The legendary bass player reflects on 40 years of Brothers In Arms, selling more than 120million records, and the enduring legacy of their huge hits.

He shares to Toni McDonald how Live Aid for him was a 'never to be forgotten' experience, with him and Mark Knopfler keeping the band together over the years.
