Weird that they used the videos for Heart and What have I done to deserve this?? as TOTP performances when they performed Heart on the 1988 Xmas special of the show and did What have I done to deserve this?? at the Brits.

Was the Brits performance not televised by ITV?
It's a pity they never did What have I done to deserve this? for TOTP. Dusty would have been in her element.

Also, what waa the name of the Dusty song they showed a clip of from the mid-80s on a UK chat show that never charted? Sounded lush.

Interesting to see Edmonds enabler, Mike Smith, on Reel Stories. Having shelved more episodes of TOTP than the Yewtree mob, I'm surprised they had permission to show the Smash Hits footage.

Great show for sure. My only complaint is that this could have easily been an hour longer. Seemed quite jolting to go from 2010 to 2022 at the end of the show, skipping 12 years of more career milestones and achievements, including more "stagecraft" moments and work in theatre etc. Either way it was great to get their reactions to all of those amazing clips and vids! :)

Highlights moments of the PSB career we haven't watched:

- The first tour (the one of the "highlights" video :lol:)
- Their performance with Liza Minelli on TV
- The performance of Go West on the Brits
- The performance with Brandon Flowers (The Killers) and Lady Gaga on the Brits
- PSB in the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games
- PSB with the Olympics in Buckinham Palace like British Treasures
- A mix of their aditional projects like: Closer to Heaven, Battleship Potemkin, The Most Incredible Thing, A Man from the Future, etc
