    Ministry of Sound celebrates its 35th anniversary as one of the world's most influential club brands and Lohan Presencer and Caitlin McAllister joined Alan and Clara to reflect on the club's journey from a disused bus garage inspired by New York's Paradise Garage to becoming a global dance music institution.
