Posted June 21, 200619 yr Who was on Top of the Pops on August 9th 1984 and why is it missing from the archives? from wiki Missing episodes In common with many shows that aired in the sixties and seventies, early editions of Top of the Pops were either wiped, or not recorded at all. Some editions exist only partially (largely performances that were either pre-recorded or re-used in later editions). There are also cases of editions which only exist in their raw, unedited form. The oldest complete episode in existence is the Boxing Day 1967 edition (only 4 complete editions from the 1960s survive). The last edition no longer in the archives is dated August 9th 1984. All editions after this date exist in full
