Nik Powell was one of two people who founded Virgin Records (guess who the other one was?). He then co-founded Palace Productions which produced films such as Mona Lisa and The Crying Game. He has also recently stepped down after a 14 year stint as Director of the National Film and Television school.  In this show we hear how Virgin Records came about and a whole host of other things such as how the postal strike and the film The Exorcist helped the company get ahead. You'll also hear about one of the Virgin subsidiaries which didn't pan out! Audio Production by Antonio Parejo. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
