20. STEVE & ALBERT
First and only TOTP studio appearance as a duo : "Follow The Bouncing Ball", 26/2/70 (exists at the BBC in black & white)
Steve Rowland and Albert Hammond had previously appeared on TOTP as members of the Family Dogg. Albert later appeared on the show as a solo artist.
Can't find any photos of them as a duo.

Ah, I was hoping you'd do this one - brilliant song! From a woefully underrepresented era of TOTP too, which is a shame as it's the era I'd most like to see. I'm loving this series, Neil - keep 'em coming!  |

Bouncing Ball is so bad it's good if you know what I mean!

Glad you're enjoying it, Simon.
I'm enjoying doing it too. Not sure when to stop though (maybe mid-70s?).
Yeah Kev, it's very catchy. Surprised it wasn't a hit.

Why not carry on until the eighties when flop acts practically dried up anyway?

I could do, but I don't want to go too 'off topic'. After all, this site is called 'Missing Episodes'. I might try and do up to around 1979 though. See how it goes. I don't want to clog up the board with too much crap |

I've heard this "Bouncing Ball" song is pretty crap as well.

It couldn't be as bas as "Ice Ice Baby" now could it? Or as bad as "Ice Ice Baby", for that matter. (Now how'd that happen?  |
