Before Saturday remains an area for improvement with those days transfer transfer deadline approaching Watford have announced the signing of England international Danny Welbeck while back left on after 5 years at the club this summer and was a free agent in cricket Pakistan have decided not to renew the contract of head coach Micky also who is a potential replacement for England's outgoing Trevor Bayliss Arthur has been in charge since May 2016 and led Pakistan to the 2017 Champions Trophy title look at the weather for Staffordshire in Cheshire fine evening lots of late spells of sunshine dry of a night with the odd patch of mist or fog and lows a middle port and crew of 11 Celsius. In the sea you don't. Think I will to live very slow traffic on the A 34 west road southbound that's around Davenport street and then crew can just turn on the A 534 northbound at Mill Street and for the South to incentive Ouch around Old Bill brought you up to date it's 5 minutes past 4. This is how good 926 on a Wednesday night can feel. It only takes a minute to make your day and every minute. Oh eighty's can have the kind of legacy that means I still make headlines today Joy Division still talked about. Still in the news their influence just completely. At the time they were making music. And yet a stone from singer Ian Curtis has been pinched from summer training. So what is it about him and Joy Division. That lives. To Jennifer also because not joins us now and it was Joy Division which brought you over here from California with me Good afternoon hard their spirit yes thank you so much for having me I know it's absolutely crazy I think any other man woman or be sorbet on could have brought me here besides Joy Division that is for sure why what is about them that makes them so special because I said a moment ago that I have 2 albums originally I mean the been 3 issues and things like that and a lot of stuff and so on in session stuff but they only have 2 albums they have 2 top 20 hits in the U.K. And yet their influence is such that I can bring someone like you over from America and tell a foreigner let's not forget that the sun and glory that is California Yeah I actually did my Ph D. About Joy Division and Joy Division fans and the thing about Joy Division is different than I would argue pretty much any other group that we have out in popular culture in the last the last Ok even LIKE 100 years ago that far is it's like the perfect story and I don't mean in in a way it's very much a hall of obviously but you have this man in Curtis who really dies for his on so many ways I mean the fact that new order comes from the ashes of that and becomes this globally massively successful band it's just it's like the perfect story and I think is so so it's really inviting to a lot of people and appealing because you're someone that felt like you fit you feel and you don't feel as alone and you really really meant it you know it's a little bit different when you have like a Roger Daltry figure for example singing about getting older now he's old and rich you know what I mean and like it is that's a different kind of thing isn't that. And so you can understand the misspoke something from. Michael Steele cemetery and they tell me that the Reem owing stone which has been stolen is being replaced since being cemented in but they also tell me that people from all over the world come to Michael's field to visit. If that's true when I was working on my Ph D. I actually went to his grave every single month for a year and I was inspired to do that after going to her list and seeing Jim Morrison's grave and seeing just the way people responded at the grave and what it meant and it really is like a religious pilgrimage for a lot of people I know the 1st time I came to the U.K. I really didn't give a hoot about London I was just like get me to Manchester I want to thank you Chris as grave as top of the list you can only imagine me like the coolest Californian walking on round knuckles field but in a year there's a usually of a football there are thousands of people give or take in any given year to include This is great and so you can clearly the effect it had on you was profound wasn't it. It really was I mean I was brought up in the Catholic religion and you know just through various pros and tribulations like religion didn't help me drinking and drugs didn't help me the only things that made me feel that I could get through things all the time was the music of Joy Division and it just comes from such a real guttural sort of place like it's just come from I don't know like it's otherworldly in curses voices so otherworldly a barn ahead of production is it's just unique in every single way and I have to say living in California there's definitely a contrast between driving around in you know 30 degree weather listening to level 2 as a part and being in Massa's field listening to it but the sentiment and the reason that it's powerful remains the same and that's why you people from all over the world being so you know influence and impact it by it busy do you think there's any parallels I was in the car with with my 2 children was the of the die and Nirvana came on. But my wife said Mom I said to my son who's not yet committed teens give it 3 or 4 years you'll understand this and love it any part think I may have offended you here but is there any prior literally between the injury division No you didn't offend me at all you actually in my case it was about Nirvana and Joy Division found them talking about the shared similarities the contrasts and one of the big things besides I mean I don't want to get you in trouble but I think there's still so many questions around Kurt Cobain's that I know that I know it's an old chestnut but it is very true but if you put that to the side the questions around his actual demise Kurt Cobain was an internationally renowned rocks are when he died and in Curtis was not you know 10000 people bought a known pleasures outside of the U.K. Really not many people knew who they were outside of Manchester not very many people knew who they were and so you know you do the similarity is you have 2 good looking. Disturbed in different ways young men writing incredibly moving music and I think that's about where the similarities and. How did you come across Julie division then living in California I came across Joy Division because I was going attending the University of California Berkeley and we had a stereo system there and this is back in the ninety's in the age of cassettes and there was noise fight but you could control the stereo during our shift and there's always a couple discarded tapes kind of lying around and if you hadn't gotten your own you had to use these and so one day I put one in and you couldn't really read what it said on the title so. I popped it in close death and it was one of those recordings where it clearly was taped off the radio at the beginning and the end of the song were cut off your listeners remember those days oh they had those dreaded D.J.'s who insist on talking over record yeah exactly who are you. Anyway and I just remember going to like I was very like 80 or 90 and I went to the older kids probably like 21 and I'm like Who is this and you know I was the kid that would not talk to people if they told me they didn't like the Smiths you know only listen for a much the British music and she gave me our clients like this is Joy Division and that was the 1st time I heard it and it was just like nothing else I'd ever heard in my life that we played a couple of snippets my favorite level time or suppose which was the 2 biggest hits in the U.K. For listeners who want a way of Joy Division which one some Would you recommend I listen to. I I love isolation who'll love it love it love it love it I get played over and over and over and over again my old roommate the likely is. Busy no more I love isolation I mean by I just say honestly I love Joy Division but I love the story of Joy Division and I know that probably sounds again like really macabre but it just is it's kind of like the perfect story in a lot of ways and I think that is why people people really really connect with. I mean you know this is not the 1st time a part of the greatest and so on of course in 2008 the actual part with his name engraved in the top part was stolen and basically glued into the ground I don't think we'll ever be able to get it out what they put it in so you know the fact is the 2nd time it's happened I think is really interesting to one final I'm probably even more ludicrous parallel is a kind of parallel between Michael Steele cemetery then in Graceland. No I thought it was only. Have you been to Graceland not been to Michael. Yeah no not at all I mean especially now because they've turned basically I could go on about this but they've turned the area around where Graceland is basically an amusement park that like takes you on this bus and you are it's like an amusement park basically for rock N roll fans but the one thing strikes you when you get a great fan of especially you know a lot of other grown up watching The Real Housewives of. Delegates house is quite small so no it's not really the same 11 quick thing that I tell you one quick interesting thing that your listeners may not know about or this is a great. TIME If you go 5. Years there is a German fan that very bare and her she killed herself actually on the same day that in. 10 years after and she asked for the final wish list be buried as close to her this as possible and to be cremated BIOS and personally cremated. There so dark and. Good grief but it's been fascinating talking to you about it thanks so much for coming on the soft on a really good to talk to you Dr Jennifer because Doc with some B.B.C. Radio start to commence at the grave of being Curtis. It's not the head stone is gone in fact the reason I would stand there from what I'm told it's actually the other end of the grave that's been stolen has been replaced and it has been glued in ways that make it in the future until just the idea that some people come to Michael's field to see the grave and Curtis find that staggering. If you don't I mean it's not big from 0801 to want a quick look at the headlines and an update on the roads the leader of a Stoke on Trent church which people living nearby awake until the early hours of the morning has apologized for the Disrupt. We'll hear from him in the next half hour police in double sure said people from Whaley Bridge can go home after nearly a week of their homes being evacuated because of fears a damaged dam would burst and in sports Stoke City midfielder Tom aint says the squad have learned from Saturday's defeat against Queens Park Rangers. In the scene when he'll stand trial. With the latest on the road his Erica. Well the twenty's who found him 6 where he had a breakdown placing and I'm between 1019 and sped everything. Something I. Saw as the roundabout. Because of right. So some request was ended suddenly cried 53 soaking quite. A right to from joy to square the fifty's looking to see heading away from Hanley tape it be ready to start in flux my new found on the bass that island south bound heading away from the basket on a downed tools to sit on and close to weeping cross according to some kind of. South you see a problem called A 121. Crave for. Broke. Yes Kilian and Thursday on B.B.C. Radio Stoke I'm just thinking about kind of music and tourism and the idea and I know it seems very McAlpin if you look into the life of Ian Curtis from Joy Division. Incredibly troubled and just really sad but interesting speaking to Jenna moment ago now Jennifer Auther because like about how his music seem to relate so closely to her experience and how that brought her over here I'm just wondering have you been to parts of the world because of musicians who've come from there you know there are people who I've done after trying to seek out Penny Lang For example I was in Liverpool anyway and I thought well while I'm here I might as well. Went to Stony for a day trip not from here because that was stupid I was on holiday in Helsinki and it's not that far you have to go across the strait of Helsinki which is top in the Baltic and that gets you across from Helsinki to tellen capital of a stony and we did it because it was quite cheap and you could do it on a boat in like an hour and a bit so it will do that to the north of this place to go and see someone else fascinating the difference on the similarities but there's 2 Depeche Mode one into both it was great I didn't go there specifically but I thought you know while I'm passing you feel you should How about you I weigh 201218080 where if you've been as a tourist in the US will do the diversions so that we can go and see something relating to someone. He was famous in one way or another others on a more card note Lenin's more the Liam in Moscow fascinating. Like he's from Madame Tussauds can't say that OK someone comes after me but he does and he's also strangely lit like a snooker table would be you know with the long light it's very hot and the way to sing about it all is you have to queue up to go in and I say even today it's packed 15 years ago it's long anyways my honeymoon I thought could do on our honeymoon something nice and romantic and Mrs G. The new Mrs G. As she was then said I want to go and see Lenin lying in state OK dear so we did then she got into trouble twice once by saying as we went down the stairs you have to picture the scene here Lenin's tomb is in Red Square in Moscow right next to the Kremlin it's kind of the the side of the Kremlin wall that everyone can access although to be honest more on the Kremlin if you want and it is very dark and you have to go downstairs because it is I think it's underground have to go down these very dark marble staircase Red Square in Moscow is only open at certain times of day when it's open you can see the people queuing went down these marble stairs and she turned to me. Is Lenin and I burst out laughing that's not the done thing when you queuing up to see someone you've got we've got Russians around you in floods of tears because to some at the time he still meant an awful lot to them and there's me in fits of laughter at this point and then you parade through. And it's a bit like if you have been to the Natural History Museum in London where you see the dinosaur you kind of go on a route around it like that really old really strange it was doing it for Europe but we're going do that is $100.00 want to want to see the strange tourist attractions you've been to that relate to somebody famous and it'll either be a place of peace in a song I would imagine or you know perhaps the grave or a memorial to somebody one trouble 3 Stoke and your.

Radio stick you up to date it's $431.00 If someone offered you 10000 pounds a month tax free for 30 years what would you do with it it's the very real question facing 24 year old Dean Wayne's because that's what he's just one so what does he want to splash out on. I think this is lovely wants to take care of his younger brother who's severely autistic B.B.C. Some readers being to. Champagne to celebrate a life changing moment last week 24 year old Dean Weems worked in distribution for Imus and now he has a guaranteed income of $10000.00 pounds a month tax free for the next 30 years he spent I had to kind of put into words really overwhelming. If it's been a week now I guess since I found out and. Only really sort of started. I didn't want the new set but life Last Monday I came into work and I I resigned. Apparently. It was I mean you don't think ever going to walk out of work because you from. It was it was it was pretty cool Dean me from Alden 3 years ago to the day of the E.U. Referendum to live with his sister in Peterborough but it's Roberts his younger brother back home in arland he wants to help the most he how severe autism is Dean made an hour long documentary with him I know. It's clearly a special relationship he has a very difficult. And. At times in his life we haven't had a service for him it's been taken away from given and take away and again and it's it's very difficult for my parents are getting older and he's getting stronger and for them to take care of him. And you have that right one of the 1st things came into my mind this is an opportunity to. Make sure that we're never in a situation where he's been away that help ever again. And that means a lot of interest. Dean has always wanted to be a film script writer having studied film at uni he now feels you have a chance to follow that passion for what other extravagance what would he splash out on now you know work and travel the world or whatever and do all these things but to me it's kind of come back to. Him after everybody here has helped me I just think it's so lovely that he's won all this money and he's going to spend it on someone he loves and wants to make sure it's safe I think that's one full story . Just just we're in kind of a loving and kind and tender mood the soft in him early on I was asking the question about how you know the one you are with these the one you should be with and how quickly you know is there such a thing for example his love for sight after a rugby player has married a woman he's only known for 2 weeks how long did it take you to know what I've been asking this afternoon and this is come in we married I married the love of my life Claire 18 months after we met.

Stuart B.B.C. Radio Stoke. Where have you been then where you went as a tourist or you went to have a look round purely because of a band an artist someone famous who you thought quite interested in them let's go to Davies on. A line from crew Hi Dave Hello Steve hello where have you been in my view that well I was on holiday in New York and I went to see B G B S Corp because that's where Blondie started out I think maybe talking heads is what I'm not sure about. I think you might be right. There were other Blondie was huge That's place wasn't really pretty much where they where they started off yeah that was where they where they got noticed and it was it was just the start of it all really what's it like. It's very pokey dingy. Not a particularly nice place to go. As you can imagine but you know like in New York punk club it was. Yeah that crafty I think could be the best way to describe it well there are those who went to the cavern in Liverpool when the Beatles were playing there back in the early sixty's you say actually it wasn't much for playing. The new Cabin Club now which is quite different I understand but but back then you know these are the kind of places these bands played because it's where they could get the gigs was not exactly yeah but I was just going to make the point that the Cavern Club now where you see all the tourists when you're you know when you don't Matthew Matthew lack of property even when you go down Matthew straight you know you see all the Tories outside of in the pictures taken but that wasn't actually where the cavern was believe it was on the other side round the corner from me that as well yeah. So did you get photos in C B G B No I did no no not really I'm not really into that I just well for the experience really I didn't really get to pick his running Did it help you to understand their music any better. A little yeah because. They're pretty much. You know working class. Just just just general punks you know they're not. You know not the people that. At a point they weren't loaded were they I mean Debbie Harry done a bit of modeling I think before the ban but beyond that was this yeah I think pretty much you know they were like so for surfing you know they were pretty much pretty crappy apartment you know it was it was pretty low life stuff OK great thanks very much I just have a good afternoon apologies for the language Dave in crew with this story 08012188 if you've been somewhere I went abroad some years ago and been abroad for a long time really must get a passport.

Radio Stokes Jenny 8 Can spoke to Lizzie Harold and Amanda about what happened later saying that Torre can really allow he could tell it was Michael Fane's and explain his so I looked out the window see where it was coming from and it was clear. The big building on the corner of the church and you could see kids pay it outside people smoking outside in like basically like it was the middle of the day they came downstairs I don't want to get on a dressing gown that you know. I don't like jungle can see where they would go OK and I looked across there were.
