Sir Lenny Henry is the Rewind Selector, choosing the tracks that take him back to the dance floors of his youth. He reflects on the nights and records that shaped him long before Tiswas, The Lenny Henry Show, Chef!, The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power and decades of groundbreaking work across comedy, drama, charity and activism. Sir Lenny returns to the stage this week with Still At Large, his first full stand‑up tour in 17 years, blending comedy, life stories and cultural reflection. He'll be touring the UK throughout the year.
