1981
This week, we celebrate the biggest-selling singles of 1981, the best pop videos, the artists who appeared in them and the stories behind the songs, from The Human League and Soft Cell to Kim Wilde and Ultravox. This fascinating programme about the music of 1981, narrated by Tony Blackburn, features revealing interviews with the singers and band members who made it a classic year in pop.
Toyah Willcox, Paul Gambaccini, Cheryl Baker, Clare Grogan and other famous faces guide us through the biggest hits of the year. Bucks Fizz were losing their skirts, Adam and the Ants were re-inventing the pop video, and synthesizer bands made it big – but there was still room in the charts for Shakin' Stevens.
