With an impressive total of approximately 945 episodes aired over its lengthy run, "Suspense" remains an enduring classic, with over 900 episodes still in existence. "Suspense" was a dynamic series that evolved through several significant phases, each marked by distinct hosts, sponsors, and director/producers. Despite these changes, the show maintained a core set of formulaic plot devices that kept its audience consistently engaged.

This relatable quality made it easy for listeners to connect with the characters. Withheld Solutions: The show was known for building tension by withholding the resolution of the story until the very last possible moment. This strategy ensured that listeners remained on the edge of their seats, eagerly anticipating the outcome. Moral Consequences: "Suspense" often featured stories where evildoers or wrongdoers faced justice in the end.

I interviewed Andrew Butler from Hercules and Love Affair last year and he made a really great point about how the most exciting music is produced when one “scene” starts to fade but the next “big thing” hasn't yet arrived – l think of it like when a new star is being born from all this gas and dust coming together -  before the “rules” of that genre are established (cos that's what happens, right?) so it's much more volatile, experimental and liberated. So, just delving into the past a little bit….in the late 70's, it was time for a change…bands like Bush Tetras, The Pop Group, The Raincoats, Gang of Four, Pigbag, The Mekons and the band that Lesley fronted for a brief but hugely influential time were creating a fork in the road. The Au Pairs took their music in a direction that was as exciting as it was inventive, through a mighty rhythm section that made your hips shake (well, they made mine rattle even then) and the taut, jagged guitar and Lesley's distinctive vocals and lyrics. They looked great, they sounded great, they were singing about stuff that mattered - misogyny, racism, conformism, relationships - and were, to my mind at least, leaders in creating a wave of bands whose impact is being felt more than ever. Pioneers isn't too strong a word in my opinion.Anyway, after the Au Pairs disbanded, Lesley went on a long hiatus doing something completely different - she became an immigration lawyer, but she has picked up her guitar again and there is a lot of stuff going on which I think is hugely exciting.https://www.iwannajumplikedeedee.comI Wanna Jump Like Dee Dee is the music podcast that does music interviews differently.
