In 1981, The Specials sang of a 'Ghost Town' - lamenting the social and economics problems facing some of the UK's hardest hit towns and cities.

Now 40 years later, that message rings true once more with the devastating impact of the Covid pandemic clear in many areas.

The City of Culture celebrations in Coventry hope to change that, with the help of the band that hailed from the city.

ITV News Arts Editor Nina Nannar sat down with The Specials lead singer Terry Hall, who is curating a four day festival for the city of his birth scheduled to go ahead at the end of July.
