There was no TOTP on 21 and 28/12/78 - on 21/12/78 there was a strike, nothing at all was going out for a couple of days. Not sure if one was billed for 28/12/78, may not have been as we had just had the Christmas one, but it might have been cancelled to make way for some of the programmes that had been postponed by the strike.

10/10/91 was presented by Tony Dortie and Mark Franklin.

Jimmy Nail's "A'int No Doubt" was by far the best performance on that show, largely due to the female singer doing the trade-off parts with Jimmy. Great song. It deserved it's #1 position in 1992.
