Oh and they're dancing to the Jaws theme. 'Pan's People in rubber' turning out to be not quite what the dads wanted.

this week's episode appears to have been recorded on one of those cheap vhs tapes you get from supermarkets.

Sort-of..
It was up until 2 weeks ago, assumed lost.
Then it was found and supplied out of "Diddy" David Hamilton's personal collection

I imagine that he has a lot of other videos recorded on cheap supermarket VHS tapes in his 'personal collection'.

Thanks. It was going to be 'Cheggers Plays Poop' but my last two display names were poop related so I thought I'd better come up with something else.

annnnnnnnnnnd on topic...When are we going to see some/any punk? Marc Bolan and Boz Scaggs have been the last couple of acts approaching anything near excitement in the last few weeks.

It's been the end credits playout music, twice.

legs and co the highlight yesterday, along with said playout music where they just turned the camera, with some kind of hexagonal lens, at the studio lights for a couple of minutes.

The BBC must have hours and hours of this kind of footage, just gathering dust somewhere. They don't realise that there is a very dedicated audience, on their very doorstep in Shepherd's Bush, and I'm sure he would love a DVD release.
