Where do we fit into all this?’ There were other photos taken, she says, where she and Poly weren’t included. We will be playing an extended, hit-rich set each night with some added live favourites and surprises. We will also be joined for a few songs by vocalist Rhoda Dakar who will also play a DJ Set to open the nights.

She says she was far closer to Ranking Roger, from the Beat, and was very upset when he died, in 2019 (one of the songs on Human Algebra, Parade the Crown, is a tribute).
