   Why is the south bank show so popular?

   Will the South Bank Show regenerate?

   • Perhaps it will regenerate with a new cultural pontiff at the helm, but this seems inconceivable: The South Bank Show is Bragg; Bragg is the South Bank Show. Or was.

   Did the South Bank Show Really Matter?

   • And the good Lord chuckled. From modest backgrounds, both have stormed the citadel. Right from the start, The South Bank Show mattered. The theme tune – Andrew Lloyd Webber ’s zigzaggy take on Paganini, played by his brother Julian – helped to fix it in the public mind.
