  2. "Contact" - Edwin Starr

    Contact with Flick of the Wrist? Tell us this is a Hand-some Peter Powell episode without telling us it's a Hand-some Peter Powell episode.

  3. Can anyone determine which lyric has inspired these outfits?

  4. "Watching the detectives" - Elvis Costello

    Elvis does his Buddy Holly impression, with some fabulously huge lens flares.

    Song of the ep, surely.

    "How deep is your love?" - The Bee Gees

    Danced by The TOTP Dancers - did they get a name? Ah, we'll call them Flick of the Wrist. This week, flat caps and waistcoats and sensible trousers, like they're auditioning for Oliver!.

  5. "Halfway down the stairs" - Robin from The Muppet Show

    On the flip side, there's a version of "Mah na mah na", later interpolated on songs by Robbie Williams and Vanilla.

    Legs and Co danced to Piero Umiliani's original just a few weeks earlier.

  6. Elton John - "Song for guy"

    The man from the gas board checks there's no leak in your piano.

    Earth, Wind and Fire - "September"

    Legs & Co perform on the 125th night of september.

  7. Legs and Co do their dances to "My forbidden lover" - Chic. This was from the time when & Co did their bit to address the European Spandex Mountain, and the surplus stocks of spangles for their tops.

    They don't just throw this show together, you know...

    "When you're in love with a beautiful woman" - Dr. Hook.

  8. A 40-minute #TOTP doesn't fit into a 30-minute slot without some editing. Snipped here: the video for "Girls talk" by Dave Edmunds.

    It's Legs o'clock: "After the love has gone" by Earth, Wind & Fire sees the gals lounging on a BBC beach boardwalk.

  9. Marshall Hain - "Dancing in the city". Another chance to see Legs & Co dancing in front of the most generic skyscraper-scape.

    Can someone hurry up and write Blitz for the VIC-20?!

  10. ... well done if you said "exercise leotards". Hope Olivia Newton-John was watching #LegsAndCo, she might use the idea later. #TOTP

  11. Legs & Co perform to Saturday Night Band - "Come on dance dance".

    Saturday Night Band were the house band of Prelude Records, a New York disco label.

    The dance troupe are in colourful exercise clothes, complete with towels.

    And then, with a complete inevitability, the tracksuits come off, and centrist dads everywhere play their favourite game - guess what's beneath!

  13. "Three times a lady" gets a gorgeous lyrical dance by three of Legs & Co, dressed in white, in harsh spotlights.

    City Boy had been on four weeks ago. youtube.com/watch?v=5k_ihBbAnS

  14. #DianaRoss's #TOTP video in the style of every Youtube clip these days.

    They edited out #RoxyMusic' "Oh yeah (on the radio)", so for completeness...

    Would we rather see Bryan Ferry or #LegsAndCo. Silly question.

    Kate Bush - Them Heavy People (Legs and Co) TOTP October 4th 1979

    Legs & Co were obsolete 2 years later due to the proliferation of pop videos - but they certainly livened up the 7:20 slot on BBC1 on Thursday evenings.
