Pop on Trial

sweet and tender hooligan · Jan 3, 2008

New series on the BBC. It's basically Top of the Pops performances from different decades. The Smiths feature in the 80's one. The series starts on the 10th. The website doesn't say when the 80's one will be on. Look at the website for more info

It's only on BBC 4, shame they don't show it on BBC 2.

BBC i (press the Red button) has been previewing this series all week by showing 30mins shows on the 60s, 70s, 80s etc...

I watched the 80s one. The Smiths were on with This Charming Man from TotP. Stuart Macconie introduced them by saying they were his personal favourites.

If you look at the tracklistings on the BBC website http://www.bbc.co.uk/musictv/popbritannia/tracklisting/episode3/ The Smiths aren't listed.....bugger. Still the series looks interesting. Sandie Shaw is a featured artist in episode 2 http://www.bbc.co.uk/musictv/popbritannia/artists/episode2/

If today's "pop" were on trial, the verdict would be death.

sweet and tender hooligan · Jan 23, 2008

The 80's one is on tonight at 10pm on BB4

There's a picture of Morrissey in the radio times.
