This week Sue Lawley's castaway is the businessman, Sir Stanley Kalms. Over the last fifty years he's turned Dixons, the small photographic studio his father opened in the 1930s, into one of Britain's biggest retail outlets. The group now covers PC World, Currys and The Link. He chooses eight records to take with him to the mythical island.
