This is terrible, but fantastic to see it on TOTP, and at 7.30!

Not really. He fluffed his line up a little, but it was not a disaster.

From the surreal to the brilliant!
Yay! Killing Joke.
The lead singer played keyboards and had gone wandering hence why the keyboardist is wearing a mask...
Did Killing Joke ever get any money off Nirvana as they ripped off Eighties for their song Come as you Are

Three minutes of that was long enough.

Yep, it definately doesn't feel very 1982.

Yep, the definition of a **** up.
Anyone spot controversial Blue Peter presenter Michael Sundin standing next to Peter Powell? He's appeared on the last few shows as a dancer.

That track wasn't Love Like Blood. This is Love like Blood:

Well, as I said earlier, he only fluffed the Bucks Fizz intro a little - not disastrously - and anyway, the guests are all part of the TOTP fun.
15 mins to go and only one more song then No.1. Hope it's a long playout as it's a classic as most of us would agree!
Had a glance ahead at the usual location - next week Dollar start their run with Sing a Sloppy Song (sorry - that was the 3 of a kind parody)

I was being tongue in cheek really.
It was all a big misunderstanding. He wasn't beaten up because he touched some guy's wife...it was because he started playing this song.
