Fair play to Smith. Most people settle for irritating others when alive. He's managing it from beyond the grave. Superior grade curmudgeonliness.

I'm sure that the BBC showed equal respect for Michael Lush's wishes.

Anyway, thrill yourselves with the chart rundown from 28 November 1985.....

Anyone harassing Sarah Greene about this on Twitter is obviously a moron.

Correct...
Just for the sake of it, make sure you're always frowning. :|
It shows the world that you've got substance and depth.

No idea why i found that exciting but it was. Their first ever proper entry.

The next one that was aired features West End Girls in a 20 second clip. A climber of 14 places to number 9.

It does actually stand out in that top ten. West End girls is far more 1981 than 1986.

I love the TOTP’s reruns but boy there was some bad music around in 1985! I remember it well. I gave up on chart music for years. Pet Shop Boys were like a breath of fresh air !
If I thought what you’d think I wouldn’t even be here.
