Oliver has been selling tickets, cheap, outside the Albert Hall for over 40 years. Now he is 79 and the business is not what it used to be: the audience books online and nobody has cash anymore. Listen to the poignant story of one of the Proms' quiet background characters as he draws towards the end of an era. The episode ends with Harry the Piano playing his own special concert paraphrase on 'La donna รจ mobile' - and that's the kind 'mobile' that comes with a ringtone.
