Midge Ure, musician, was surprised by Michael Aspel - with the help of singer-songwriter Bob Geldof - at BBC Broadcasting House, during an interview with disc jockey Johnnie Walker on his radio show. Midge, who was born in Glasgow and trained as an engineering apprentice, enjoyed particular success in the 1970s and 1980s as a pioneer of the New Romantics with bands including Slik, Thin Lizzy, Rich Kids and Visage, and as the frontman of Ultravox, whose hits included Vienna and Dancing with Tears in My Eyes. In 1984 he co-wrote and produced the charity single Do They Know It's Christmas? in response to the famine in Ethiopia. The single, written with Bob Geldof, sold 3.7 million copies in the UK - the biggest selling single ever at that time - and led to Live Aid, the 1985 concert which featured the world's greatest music acts and raised millions for charity.
