In 1965 some of Motown’s brightest new stars - including The Supremes, Stevie Wonder, Martha and the Vandellas and Smokey Robinson and the Miracles - arrived in London for a visit that would change the face of British music history. This is the story of how a small group of dedicated British music fans paved the way for a tour that would help propel the Motown artists to international stardom, partly thanks to a twist of TV fate.
