10 KEEP IT IN THE FAMILY great sitcom with Robert Gillespie, Pauline Yates, Stacey Dorning, and Sabina Franklin...The American version was "Too Close For Comfort"

 

We must note...on Monday 28th Sept 1981 at 7pm, Jim Bowen hosted the first series of the darts based quiz "Bullseye". This would have started 2 weeks earlier, but the first 2 editions had to be scrapped because Jim`s hosting was so bad! This was a bit of a let down and cost waste, because in the 2nd show...the star prize was car! The poor contestants never even saw their glory on tv. Jim was the 5th host chosen for the show, and in these early shows would say things like "You`ve won an empty packet of crisps", when the dart player hit the black on the prize board! The familiar catchphrases appeared via Jim, as he utttered those words "Great, Smashing, Super", to a man who said he was unemployed! When ATV, lost their franchise for the Midlands at the end of 1981, we might have been thankful. Though in 1982, Central TV brought Bullseye back at 2.30pm on Sundays. In 1983, it was still an unnetworked showing around the 5/6pm depending where you lived. All areas were out of sync, and showed different editions! This continued until 1994, then the show moved to a networked showing around 5.15pm on Saturdays. A couple of the final shows, could not be shown because of bad sound sync...but these were shown in 2004 on Challenge TV. When in 2006, Northern comedian Dave Spikey hosted a new series around 10.30pm, week days. Granada produced the show, for Challenge after Ant & Dec did a Celebrity version in 2005. It was said that the new series had been made with Peter Kay in mind, to host it...although he didn`t!

Dead Ringer was the belated follow up to Bat Out Of Hell, 3 years later. It kept the Rolling Stones at #2 in the albums. Cliff was having better days...no age stopping gaps then! He had 2 simultaneous top 10 albums...the first time since 1963. Johnny Mathis seemed to be looking into the future with a Madonna album title! Ronco and K-Tel battled it out with the comps, as the Shadows lined up the bottom of the top 20. Outside the 20, we found Heaven 17...their first single "Play To Win" just missed the top 40, despite being on Top Of The Pops with Simon Bates in Sept 1981. The album "Penthouse And Pavement" peaked at #11.

Well as Adam Ant ruled, we had a bunch of cheese. Including those Tweets (or was it twits?). The Birdie Song was originally called "Bird Dance", and was recorded by a Belgian act called Cash And Carry in 1974. To add insult to injury, the Electronicas were also in the charts with a more electronic version! The medley was still in, with Starsound giving us "Stars On 45 Vol. 3". This one was mainly instrumental, and featured mainly intros to the likes of songs by the Stylistics etc. Other medleys came via Adrian Baker doing yet another Four Seasons tribute. Even the Hollies did a medley of their hits. Quite eventful by calling it "Holliedaze". Well it was late Summer! Lobo (not the 70s outfit) gave us a Caribbean medley, by way of songs like Island In The Sun..."Daylight come, and I`ve gotta sign on", as it became in the 80s with so many unemployed! Quite easily the worst medley was the quite ghastly, out of tune medley by Portsmouth Sinfonia called "Classical Muddley". There was some class in the chart though...for me, Godley And Creme (ex-10CC), Hi-Gloss, Linx, Police, Imagination, Bucks Fizz, Dollar, Randy Crawford, Beggar And Co (doing a follow up from a Spandau Ballet hit "Chant No. 1 I Don`t Need This Pressure On" . A dodgy re-make was being pushed by Radio One by Rex Smith & Rachel Sweet. Rachel already having a re-make in 1978 with "B-A-B-Y (Baby)".

Now don`t forget the Christmas Competition started last week...All you have to do is name 3 acts that will appear in the Christmas Top Ten on Radio One on Sunday 20th December. The X Factor winner is not allowed as a guess, for obvious reasons. The first correct will win the top 10 singles. Where there are download only versions in the chart, we will throw in a corresponding album, that contains that track. The Competition will close on Friday 11th Dec at midnight. So, get in early!

3 Acts that will appear in the top 10.

That's possibly the easiest competition of all time.

 

Really? :unsure:

 

Anyway, thanks Dave :)

 

 

Hopefully TTT and Dizzee will displace Mini Viva and, uh, Dizzee in the top ten by Sunday :w00t: Would be interesting to see Dizzee twice in the top 10 though, then there's two Jay-Z tracks top ten too! :o

Big surprise at the new dan brown being number one book lol

 

Absolute yay for saturdays being number one pre-order. So hope that song does well.

Really? :unsure:

 

Anyway, thanks Dave :)

We have to predict three songs in the Christmas Chart top 10. The deadline for predictions is 8 days before the Christmas Chart is revealed. All it effectively is is name three songs that will be in next weeks top 10. :|

Oh yeah, but right now it's tough! If someone enters now, and gets it right, then they will beat someone who enters the week before Christmas...

Yeah, but look at this way...Already 17 people have entered. They may or may not have correct guesses. Of course you are right, as the weeks go by, it just gets easier. Likely as not someone will be correct way before the 11th Dec, but it will increase the amount of guesses/entries. That`s the idea, and it also increases the popularity of our wonderful forum! :lol: Plus everyone likes something for nothing, don`t they?! :thumbup:

It's a good comp... I wish I was one of those 17 people, but I really can't think about Christmas yet :lol:
True, but if there's 17 people entered already there's no point in entering now, loads will be right as it's the easiest chart of the year to predict... It's not a bad competition, but I think it could've been better to give more people a chance and have an air of unpredictability about it.
