Watching the reruns of Top of the Pops 1981 has revealed that there was a lot of rubbish which charted and that I had thankfully forgotten about.

Why you can possibly overlook shaddap you face as novelty (being kind) hit, last week and this have included:

Capstick comes home = Tony Capstick and the Carlton Main Frickley Colliery Band, and

My Mum is one in a million - Children of Tansley School

Are there any others as bad as these that you recall

The others yes, but Paul Shane one of the finest all round entertainers this country ever produced?

With all due respect, scollobs. I can't speak for his acting but the man was a pub singer and never a good one at that. Have you seen the video to him murdering You've Lost That Loving Feeling?
