What. The. Shite.
#TOTP
What. The. Shite.
#TOTP
Shaaagy!! #totp
This is the definition of an unnecessary cover, surely.
Only seems like a few weeks ago we had Johnnie & Denise.
I guess they're relying on the Boyzone fans to raise money for Comic Relief.
But can't we just edit in Billy Ocean now? #TOTP
Mutemutemute. #totp
Bingo! Full house. #totp
Pyeewwwww! #TOTP
Synthophone klaxon! #totp
Yeah! Worth the wait. #totp
Part. Let's part, Phil. #totp.
I wants don't get, Gary. #totp
Proper Pops. #TOTP
What are we watching? Erm. #totp
Even he looks embarrassed. #totp
Santa's not so little helpers. #totp
Fun Boy Three! Tune. #TOTP
I know it's Kylie, but POINTLESS COVER KLAXON. #TOTP
There may have been some Es dropped. #totp
Now there's a man whose got the moves. #totp
Poor lad will be cold on the way home. #totp
That red pleather jacket is inexcusable. #totp
They are literally conga-ing around the #TOTP studio.
None of these live performances are setting a high bar. #TOTP
Don't love me for fun girl. Because I'm not. #totp
Gross eye to camera there. We all went "Eeeewww". #totp
Jarvis needs to burst into the video and punch him. #totp
No no Mr Fawlty, it's "uno dos tres".
#TOTP
I think this is my favourite presenter team of all time! #totp
Bit of turn of the century ska/two tone? Works for me.
#TOTP
"Now are you sure they are supposed to smoke this much??" #totp FireMarshall
We only have his word for it that she called him a tiger. #totp
Either the man on the right is HUGE, or the rest are tiny. #totp
Narrator: Susie Mathis was not in fact on #TOTP in 2008.
Tune. And despite previous toot, I do appreciate the live era of #TOTP
Chaka Kahn! Chaka Kahn! Chaka chaka Kahn!
Robot klaxon!!!! #totp
He'll be paying a very big
Mansion tax
In the country.
#totp
She gently put her finger.... Was wondering what was coming next. #totp
One of the Smurfs has escaped and taken some E.
#TOTP
Ok. See you all next time. I'm not sticking around for sicko jacko. 👋🏻#totp
It's a banger, but it's too Commonwealth to do well in Eurovision.
Not European enough :-(
#TOTP
Oh, I knew they'd go for shakey, the entertainer at the local old people's home. #totp
If I was driving the camera he was staring into, I'd be trying desperately to corpse him. #totp
This song is as blandly beige as the singer's outfit. #TOTP
Chooon.
My brother had the 2 Unlimited album on cassette. I don't think I fully appreciated it at the time.
#TOTP
Non-stop bangers (well, ignoring Mr Beige) on this episode. #TOTP
You cannot be rude about Begin the Beguine. You just can't. #TOTP
I'm a little surprised Britney Spears is as late as 1999.
My daughter's just said "oh, I hadn't realised how accurate the Glee version of the video was" 🤦♀️
#TOTP
Martin Fry's trousers must be quite tight for him to hit those high notes. #TOTP
Another one for the collection, to be thrown onto the timeline at appropriate (inappropriate) moments. #TOTP
Well that's it for this programme. I'll see you next week (and maybe MJ's video will have finished by then)
#TOTP
Get your hands off her! 🤦♀️ #TOTP
Oh hello #Bluesky #TOTP-ers.
Just a gentle reminder that if you reply to my posts or interact with them in any way, that interaction is totally invisible to me unless you follow the Fediverse bridge thingy-wotsit.
https://fed.brid.gy/login will see you right.
Extremely pointless cover klaxon! 🚨
#TOTP
Dorts! I assume he's still over there on Twitter threatening to spill the beans about all the sordid back stage goings-on at #TOTP but never actually spilling any beans at all.
Was there really no video available for Under Pressure? Surely Queen & Bowie had a couple of quid between them to make one. #TOTP
FFS, it's Cliff again. I'll see you in 1988.
#TOTP
Congratulations to everyone who sat through the full 195 minutes of tonight's music marathon. Hope you've still got some neurons left!
Until next time. #TOTP
On top of everything else, it turned out that Seal was a clairvoyant:
🎵 Don't you know that racism among future kings can only lead to no good.
#TOTP
Right, Cliff's it. I'm going back to #HazbinHotel that my daughter's trying to get me into.
See y'all later. #TOTP
There's nothing to be said about Killer that thousands of other people have done a thousand times better than I ever could. So I'm just going to sit back and admire Seal at his total imperial finest. #TOTP
Another chooon #TOTP
Love it or hate it, there's no getting away from the fact that BBC Four has decided to give us not one, not two, not even just three but three-and-a-quarter hours of Top of the Pops tonight.
So gird your loins pop kids, for better or worse it's going to be a #TOTP marathon.
That was... jarring. #TOTP
And triggers an unnecessary cover klaxon.
Hey yes!! #totp
RE: #TOTP hashtag for those who follow it.
This is when it all began, back in 1963.
Keytar klaxon! 🚨
#TOTP
Well helloooow Miss Harry. #totp
Not an unnecessary cover.
#TOTP
I think Tony just rolled a 20. #totp
What the screaming balls is this??! #totp
Oh-oh! Tune. Cheese. Lovely
#TOTP
It looks like a D&D campaign in here. #totp
Prefer the Kylie & Kermit version. #TOTP
He keeps claiming we know his name. But I don't. #totp
My teacher wife says "it's just like my school!" 😯 #totp
Two covers that do something different in a row #TOTP
Going to all those lengths, then not singing live. Why?? #totp
Did they ever tell you how they got these scars?
#TOTP
Spandau before they went all sophisticated! This takes me back. #totp
I'm going to say "Rich Parents". I mean, look at all that kit! #totp
I hope you're all singing along at home, as requested by Robbie #TOTP
I had a friend who used to live in the same street as Lenny in New York. #totp #NotMyNameDrop
Corrs. It was originally "I would runaway _from_ you". Not many people know that. #totp
The tom-toms might not be plugged in, but appreciate the live singing.
#TOTP
Oh god, I remember this video! Weirded me out, but I was young and impressionable. #totp
Obviously this man is a medical expert. Just look at him. He exudes public heath knowledge. #totp
Because obviously this music says "Scotland" to me. We suspect they were supposed to have to Spandau, but they turned up, and the costumes had already been ordered. #totp
