Wawwick, Simon?
Typical, the one everyone else said wrong at the time is the one Simon Bates got right. |

It's been a bland episode so far. Good songs if they were played on their own, but as a compilation it is too much.

You'd think he'd use one of those chairs having dragged them out there.

This is okay but I much prefer Electric Avenue. It would have been nice for that to be number one and I Don't Wanna Dance to have been number two instead.

So what exactly was different about this Eddy Grant track compared to his previous ones which caused this one to get to no 1 instead of no 14?

Correct way of saying it, apparently.

Eddy Grant's second hit in the space of a few weeks, since he wrote Walking On Sunshine.

Trying to look deep and meaningful when you're holding an orange balloon.

Such a shame we miss out on the great backing performance of 'Annie I'm Not Your Daddy'.

O'Dowd's a miserable mimist.

I would almost certainly have been bored to tears by this episode in 1982. Nothing much has changed in that respect.

Getting a bit like Glastonbury with the flags getting in the way of the shot.

0/10, points taken off for how cringeworthy Bates was.

Looks like that blond guy in his mid/late 20s who was always in the Top of the Pops studio standing next to the presenters in 1983 and 1984 has finally arrived. I wonder who he was. Anyone know who I mean?
