This evening's show features an eclectic selection of artists who've either:
- made their way from overseas to live and record in Canada
or
- Canadians who've done the same thing, but in reverse.
Due to C-19 this programme was pre-recorded from "Beyond The Pond", September 2020.
* Chris has been a big fan of CKCU since arriving in Ottawa from the UK in 1981. He joined the station later that year and went on to present two shows each week until returning to the UK in autumn 1986. Since then he's made numerous flying visits back to the CKCU studio to present shows or to appear as a guest.

This programme was recorded for CKCU to be used wherever needed within the schedule whilst the studios are in lockdown (and not specifically for "Plunderphonics"). So it doesn't match the "Plunderphonics" show's usual concept, sorry. But I hope you'll enjoy the idea behind this show and the variety of artists featured. I'll be setting my alarm for 2.45 a.m and joining you live from the UK on the interactive page, so do come and say "Hi".
