"Tragedy" over the charts, from a Steps cover band.
The Hand-some Peter Powell is our first Mystery Year host.
"Honey i'm lost" - The Dooleys
Ilford's finest were just about to have their highlight year, reaching the top ten with "Wanted" and "The chosen few".
It's the first single release with young sister Helen on keyboards, she joined singing siblings Marie, Anne, Kathy, and Jim; and guitarists John and Frank. Seven Dooleys in one band remains a record.

"You can do it" - Al Hudson & the Partners (and chart)
"The chosen few" - The Dooleys
Does someone in BBC4 Towers have a crush on one of The Dooleys? This completes a re-showing of all their hit songs in about a year.

"Love patrol" - The Dooleys
Ilford's finest had almost exactly one year making hits, this was their final chartbound tune.
After fame, they went their separate ways. Three members went to make music in South Africa, Jim the singer sold scooters, and Kathy married Andrew Mackintosh (DS Grieg in "The Bill").

"He was beautiful" - Iris Williams. Ah, "Cavatina", latterly the theme from Take Hart's "Gallery" section. With an added vocal line, and subject to pumpkinification by The Top of the Pops Orchestra.
"The chosen few" - The Dooleys. Rather good, this; loud and sassy, Looks rather like The Manhattan Transfer, but with a bit of an edge.
Tune reminds me a bit of "Sugar sugar". Quite how they can call four singers and a full "a few" is another question.
