A topic came up the other day about TYO, that very cool British import which had a short run in the US on MTV in the 80's. We were trying to remember all of the characters, all we could remember was Neil and Vivian, who were the other two? Do they still play this show somewhere in Briatin and do they sell a video collection of those shows? They should show TYO on BBC America!

No, I don't have one. And I thought TYO was complete and utter shite.

I know the character that played Mike was on Absolutely Fabulous.

The guy that played pRick..(loved that episode)... did the movie with Phoebe Cates "Drop Dead Fref". He also took some heat for doing the commercial against England adopting the Euro where he played Hitler.

As for Neal, download his song "Hole in my shoe".
