  1. @daweaver Wait what? I thought Jensen's link meant the FPs would be wearing pyjamas, then I had a look at them and thought they were dressed perfectly normally. #TOTP #1984Watch

  2. "You to me are everything" - The Real Thing

    Chris Amoo, lead singer with The Real Thing, later went on to be a successful dog breeder, winning Best In Show at Crufts in 1987.

  8. Happy 40th birthday to the Now! That's What I Call Music series. Popular music from the last few months distilled into a handy double-CD.

    Back in the summer, I was in #NowPop40, selecting my favourite entries from some of the Now! albums...

  9. CW: BBC Survivor ep 3

    @daweaver I saw ep 3 of #SurvivorUK tonight. Ep 1, boring. Ep 2, more interesting, still a bit dull. Ep 3, getting into its stride. For me Joel isn't quite right. Challenges are good though choosing endurance for ep 1 was silly. Season is coming along ok and I think it's a solid production. Will be watching the whole season.

    PS They need to add some more lights at tribal council, by which I mean any lights. I DO NOT LIKE DARK SETS. #PetPeeve

  10. @daweaver @themorrigan Hi Daweaver. No, I don't think I'll change my opinion re: #JeremyClarkson. My point also remains the same. And I can't see where in my post I suggest the BBC broadcasts #WhoWantsToBeAMillionaire ? In fact my last sentence says: "Maybe women contestants will face pelting too, #ITV?" Thereafter the post references quoting a BBC news article on Clarkson with a link to that @BBC online article for reference. Here it is again. 😍 bbc.in/3HU9klO

  11. "Bass (how low can you go)" - Simon Harris

    #TOTP has not yet learned to make dance music look interesting.

    Lots of shots of Simon behind his decks, lots of his keyboardist.

    The dancer doesn't mug into the camera, and director Paul Ciani uses his preferred swooping crane shots, and there's no visual focus. It's a mess.

    Handheld cameras were not yet in use, and Ciani needed them. Remember Xpansions from a few weeks ago? Same director, better tech.

    #SimonHarris

  12. Simon Harris with "Bass (how low can you go)", dudes in bomber jackets walk around a white studio decorated with the word "bass", and trenchant house music plays.

    Looking for all the world like Chris Lowe, he'll be in next week as well.

  13. Reviewing "Handcuffed" with Jonathan Ross.

    A fascinating show, showing how it's mostly superficial things that divide people, and how a little tolerance and patience can be helpful.

    Told its story in a brilliant way, not fully chronological, but logical and enhancing the tale.

  14. A full album for today, Master Harker.

    "Christmas music from Guildford Cathedral" came out in 1966.

    1. Fantasia on Christmas Carols (Ralph Vaughan Williams)
    2. All in the morning (arr. Vaughan Williams)
    3. Bethlehem Down (Peter Warlock)
    4. Adam lay ybounden (Peter Warlock)
    5. Wassail Song (arr. Vaughan Williams)
    6. Carol Symphony (Victor Hely-Hutchinson)

    "Carol symphony" begins at 22'45, and the best bit is 35 minutes into the video.

  15. @losttourist The current Top Twenty Hit Parade contains four records old enough to have been on the original Top of the Pops, and another one that pre-dates the "time-based one-time password" spec.

    An observer might conclude that "vintage music" and "contemporary music" are one and the same thing.

    #TOTP

  20. Our second #TOTP Mystery Year comes from the week when "Network 7" and "Blackadder III" won BAFTA awards.

    CITV showed "Bros... The Story So Far". Daytime television show "Kilroy!" shared the problem of impotence, or what happens when one can no longer shaft.

    Keeping it up tonight: the Hand-some Peter Powell and his minder, Sir Simon Bates.

    #Bros

  21. "Silent night" - Bros

    Matt Goss goes through his vocal paces, the most extravagent singing line we've heard since Whitney Houston. Unusual lyric, turns out it's a more literal translation of the German original.

    Bros were the band of 1988, the biggest pop stars. It's fitting that they should have the final word, and ensure it's a seasonal word.

  22. "There's no other way" - Blur

    They'd been tipped as a band to watch for about eighteen months, and this breakthrough hit was ... a bit of a grower. Left me nonplussed on first hear, but the grooving guitars wound their way into my brain. The rest is history.

    Love the camera angles, woozily drifting around the stage, getting clonked during the intro. Concentrate mostly on Damon, but loads of weird angles - particularly Alex's guitar solo.

  23. "Dreaming" - Ruff Driverz

    Don't think i've heard this since 1998, which feels like a slight error on my part.

    "Until the time is through" - Five

    Known for their fast dancing and vigorous jumps, Five put on their suits and dance around their chairs and make a "sensitive" "slow" record and try to look all grown up. And it just about works.

    Let's hope Ronan Keating doesn't get any ideas from this.

  24. "Everything is great" - Inner Circle

    Debut for the Jamaican group, and reggae purists cherish their work from this era.

    We saw them again on #TOTP in 1993 with the summer smash "Sweat (a la la la long)".

    Why a Friday night TOTP ? The Beeb wanted to hold "A Song for Europe" on Thursday, selecting the best* song to represent the BBC at Eurovision.

    A strike meant the contest only went out on radio, won by "Mary Ann" by Black Lace. Yeah, the "Agadoo" guys.

  25. "Where do broken hearts go?" - Whitney Houston

    A massive vocal workout, shown through the medium of shooting pool and chattering in an office complex.
