Sir Simon Bates, the lost voice of The Speaking Clock.
"Videotheque" - Dollar
Weird: the opening moments are a repeat from three weeks ago, before fading into tonight's film. Was that the backup tape kicking in?
Frankly, should have stuck with it. This performance does the song no favours: Therese dances around in a hat, David looks slightly shifty, they have less chemistry than Bunsen and Beaker, so it's basically Dollar by numbers.

@daweaver@mas.to Isn’t “Dollar by numbers” just “Dollar” though? #TOTP

Irene Cara's "Fame" is still number 1, we see the clip from the movie mixed with studio footage and Leroy's audition. Play out with Kid Creole and the Coconuts' "Stool pigeon". Our first Mystery Year was 1982. More in a moment! #TOTP
