Gary Kemp has a fabulous house on Fitzroy Square, paid for largely by the royalties he still receives for writing “Gold”. It’s been played hundreds of times across the BBC and across the world at every Olympics since 1984. It will be no doubt be played countless times again over the next two weeks. But this time, Spandau Ballet will be joined by Duran Duran, as this track gets played repeatedly for obvious reasons. So although the British team may not triumph in Rio, good old British music will.
