We just need Steve Hackett now and we can build a hotel.
Jury’s out on the leotard with bum-keyboard though.
OK, this is an absolute bop, dizzy or otherwise.
I bet the camera and lighting team were cursing that scaffolding all show.

”And now here’s Creme Brulee, fresh from the Eurovision heats!”
Chart spoiler alert. #totp
Spirit of the Radio - one of the least politically naive and obnoxious tracks of one of the greatest bands of all time.
I see the Lambrettas in the chart, Poison Ivy or Page 3? Either way, play Lambrettas, you bastards.
Play Martha and the Muffins #totp
Kenny Rogers
Does he really #TOTP

KYLIE!
I should be so lucky lucky lucky lucky
I should be so lucky in love
(Yeah, where's all my luck?)
I got to see Kylie once - just got back to Warrington from work and Dad phoned before I was out the station -
"Want to see Kylie?"
"When? How much?"
"Tonight. Free"
Well, you don't say no do you, so I turned around and went to the other platform...
She did an acoustic version of Lucky which was great 8-)

"I know you got soul" - Erik B and Rakim
Rap set to a Jackson 5 sample, and with archive footage including actor Peter Wyngarde.
Our first mystery year was 1988.
Also from this week in '88: "The Snooker Machine", in which QED tries to work out the physics and maths behind snooker.
Cor. Vanessa Paradis. She’s 2 years older than me, and when Joe Le Taxi came out I had a proper crush on her.

"I should be so lucky" - Kylie Minogue
Still number one, and we see the official video.
#TOTP also made a special clip of Kylie in and around Melbourne.
Play Belinda! I need an excuse to mention to the #TOTP crowd that I have tickets to see her at Manchester Apollo later this year.
BTW Fedi did I tell you I've got tickets for Belinda Carlise? I may have accidentally just let it slip out.

"Don't turn around" - Aswad
Their debut? A decade into their career for their #TOTP debut!
Big stovepipe hats to keep their sandwiches in, Brinsley finds the camera like the seasoned professional he is.
The message is completely at odds with the sound - it's a kissoff to an ex-lover, the verses put on a brave face, the chorus reveals the truth of the emotional state.
This song was a ray of sunshine, a little bundle of infectious joy. Still is.
