BBC4 did show a couple of the Kenny Everett Television Shows about 3 or 4 years ago. Wouldn't it be just wonderful if they would show some more of them just after these TOTP editions. I wonder why they showed just a couple but no more. I do hope it's not that insidious PC plague that infects the BBC particularly badly.

A bit of class from the Associates

The best single on the show tonight - Associates, Party Fears Two.
A standout single of the 1980's too. ![]() Probably not a karaoke classic. Quote:
Anyone got a tingle going down the back of the neck to this pop music masterpiece?

Sublime. Magnificent. Spell bounding and Majestic. 3 and a bit minutes of pop perfection! Cheers for that Billy, you stole the show my boy.
His cheeky little looks at himself in the monitors are so endearing. That was Brilliant. ![]()

Ever get the feeling Adrian wasn't bothered if he wrote the song in an attic or not. Just looking for a world to rhyme with addict i bet.
Wouldn't surprise me if the cheeky scamp wrote it in the conservatory

Why couldn't Kenny Everett have presented TOTP in character like that. It would have been brilliant.
So the Kenny Everett Television Show was on BBC1 at 8pm after TOTP. Just compare that to the tedious daytime style drivel you get now at 8pm, Zelebrity Masterchef. ![]() |

Thanks for this. I'm going to use it later on the Games thread in the Music section entitled "Making Fun Of Singers Names" which I regularly contribute to. I had a rather rude one for Haircut 100 which you'll have to search out. Other ones from this 1982 chart include Meat Oaf, and one for me and Highlander Ian - Modern Bromance.

Well now having caught up with all the comments I can say tonight's show was a definite 7/10 with The Associates being the icing on the top!

Yes, best episode for a while, i say. I enjoyed it from start to finish, although i wasn't keen on everything, and especially the No 1. However, even Tight Fit couldn't spoil things. Definitely an episode i could watch repeatedly. I'm looking forward to seeing the full late showing. Weren't The Associates marvelous?

Not too bad an episode - 1 great record, 3 good ones, 1 half decent one and 3 which were utter rubbish plus a dreadful playout.
'Party Fears Two' is an excellent track and was by far the highlight of the programme. Worst song of the night was 'Quiereme Mucho (Yours)'. The number 1 was also rubbish and the quality of the video for a 1982 production was very poor - it looked so grainy. |

Actually I'm getting quite fond of 'The Lion Sleeps Tonight' after all these episodes!!
Ursula my dear, is you trippin!! I think I'm going to have to create a TOTP sub thread, I'll title it, 'some of Ursula's shock/horror comments'. This can go in of course, along with various one's you've made about 'Winner Takes It All' over the years.
