List of Desert Island Discs episodes (1961–1970)


The BBC Radio 4 programme Desert Island Discs invites castaways to choose eight pieces of music, a book and a luxury item that they would take to an imaginary desert island, where they will be marooned indefinitely. The rules state that the chosen luxury item must not be anything animate, nor anything that enables the castaway to escape from the island, for instance a radio set, sailing yacht or aeroplane. The choices of book and luxury can sometimes give insight into the guest's life, and the choices of guests between 1961 and 1970 are listed here.
