With Queen's roadie Peter Hince

Adam meets Queen roadie Peter Hince ahead of an auction of some of the band's rarest items

Adam rounds up the week by talking about his favourite topic, Queen. He meets head roadie to the band, Peter Hince, who brings us the stories behind some of the band's rarest items that go on auction later this month, including Freddie Mercury’s gold microphone.

And why hundreds of buses from all over the UK are heading to one of our local museums very soon!
