Now Screening - What Are You Watching Right Now?

Top Of The Pops from 1st July 1982.

1982 seems like yesterday to me, but it is more than 34 years ago. In any case, everything was very synthy, and Adam Ant knew how to act in his videos whilst Toyah lacked conviction.

A new art form at the time, the 'pop video'.

I saw that one too. Saw Toyah live, way back then (first gig I went to) and certainly she knew how to do it all live, excellent stuff. I had a thing for Toyah back then, and to a degree still do.

She was quite cute. Although at the time I preferred Susannah Hoff out of The Bangles IIRC.

It was the way she was, the look, etc. Heck I was only out of School back then.... where did the time go ?

Never liked Toyah, since seeing her in the film Jubilee late 70's. Terri Nunn more for me, though i never liked the band.

No doubt it was Toyah's orange-coloured skinhead hair do that put you off - I did me.

There were some dead sexy-looking girls in the Bangles; still like 'Walk like an Egyptian'

Mel and Kim were tasty as well.

Only one. Susanna Hoffs, who was gorgeous. Knocking on a bit now and approaching sixty.

Yes Terri Nunn I like Berlin, last album is fabulous... Count Three and Pray. I also like Terri Nunn's solo material too.

Toyah in Jubilee looks totally different to later.

It's Howdy Doody time

Back to the Future Part III (1990)

Great train crash near the end, and not surprisingly they used a 1/4 scale model of a train. The scenes when the deloren was on the tracks speeding in front of the train were infact shot in reverse, as the train was towing the car(full size train this time.Sierra no3 I believe). train could only do 40 mph i reverse though due to the small real buggy. Still, its a super bit of cinema. the high pan of the town is a homage to Sergio Leone.
