For those that care, a new Dolby Atmos mix of Do They Know It’s Christmas (1984) has just gone on to streaming. As well as sounding warmer and more modern, there’s a slight difference to Paul Young’s opening like - an additional word “…and there’s no need to be afraid”.

Make the change now. It’ll probably be fiddly to start with but I don’t think you’ll regret it.

Besides, you’ll enjoy the eye rolling when people send you links on Spotify!

We’re an Apple Music household and don’t understand why people use Spotify.

Why? It’s very funny.

Bextor is great, though she’s turned closer to being a karaoke act and doing fewer of her original songs. HL are fantastic.

Hey TV and Film friends. I'm now available as a highly experienced Drama script supervisor. Do please pass my CV on to anyone recruiting or looking to fill some dailies slots. www.gemsagency.co.uk/cv_profile/e...

In what way?

Thoughts, please. Saw the wonderful Human League in Cardiff last night. Apart from Susan being booed when she said it was the start of their Englishtour (ouch) it was great but someone had a go at me for dancing in by the third act. I didn’t stop. Do you think people should sit through pop concerts?

Wanted to share that I’ve just been nominated for Best Director for my short film at The North Film Fest which takes place in NYC next Feb. I’ll be going out there, of course. Still pinching myself about it!

Finally listened to this and think it’s Gary’s best episode so far. So many classics that I’d not heard in ages like Dad Band and ending it on Nightshift was just perfect.

Oh! Weird.

Hang on? Ray of Light hasn’t been released in Dolby Atmos? X

What lyrics did Smash Hits get wrong that you believed?

For me, it’s
“I’ll show you in spring it’s a picture of Sting”

The Cure ‘Lovecats’.

Yeah, we did have a lot of lights there which made the pictures look brilliant but I see what you mean.

It was! What makes you think it wasn’t?

This is mine. I know that for a lot of people it’s Voulez-Vous but this one is so synthy and ahead of its time.

Happy Doctor Who Day! Fond memories of this photoshoot!

That’s quite the recommendation!

I was working in Insurance in Bristol. The main from Memorex who came to fix our computer monitors told us he’d just heard it on the radio.

Very excited by the 2024 remixed version of Thompson Twins ‘Into The Gap’ out today. I feel this is an overlooked band from the 80s.

Don’t want to say this too loudly, but I don’t think The Box of Delights is all that…

Are You Being Served? - By Appointment (15th November 1978). Mrs Slocombe returns from her disappointing holiday.

True…

Feels like we need a few more celebs and some companies to come here, then we know Bluesky is happening

Catching up with Sounds of the 80s on Radio 2 and they played Madonna’s ‘Supernatural’ for their Halloween episode. Can we check if this is its first play on BBC? I feel @jkalifornia.bsky.social might have been involved…?

Whenever people talk about Chemtrails, I just hear ‘chemsex’. No? Just me?
