About this episode
The Police are no more. But Sting never rests on his laurels. In Episode Three, Vernon Kay follows the first stages in a solo career spanning four decades. Embracing his origins in Jazz, and his magpie instinct for melody, Sting joins the ranks of the great British soloists. At the same time, he’ll help to forge the bond between pop music and philanthropy that still exists today. Through the BBC archive and brand new interviews, you’ll hear how Sting embraced the new, honed his craft, and fought for a better world. A Cup and Nuzzle Production. Written and produced by Joe Foley.
