Apologies to those who know, but there are still many who regard it as lost and this is for them.
David Bowie's Laughing Gnome film on TOTPS.
Probably a nightmare for TOTPS producers, here was an obscure record climbing the charts that the singer had disowned and Pan's People could not really dance to it so they probably said to Caravel Films ..you have got 5 days to come up with something.

I never tire of seeing this, happy memories. I was confident that it still existed, I posted some time ago on the forum about watching it on the (Swiss?) music channel Onyx on Eutelsat 13’ east in the late 90’s, 97 I think.

Just to explain to all; this film, shown on the 04/10/1973 edition of TOTP, is held by an archive in Kent. I mentioned this before on the Forum. They also have the 'filmed' version of Pan's People's dance to Monster Mash from TOTP, which is not able for being filmed on a studio set rather than the TOTP studio and for Babs wearing a dark wig.
This upload is ripped from Robert Reinstein's excellent re-creation of the 500th TOTP that was made for a Kaleidoscope event.
The copy here is exactly the same as my DVD which I obtained back in about 2013.
