Yes I heard a piece on this on Radio 4 the other day, absolutely hilarious.
Mind you I remember when they got Elvis Costello onto TV to interview him about Sid Vicious. He said to the interviewer on air, "I don't know why you've got me here to answer questions on a guy I never met" The interviewer then said they were both into the same music and he thought Elvis would have a view on it.
Guess which interviewer/researcher didn't know the difference between Punk and New Wave?
Remember the blow up photo of Jocky Wilson the fat Scottish darts player on Top of the Pops, instead of Jacky Wilson, when the song Jacky Wilson Says was in the hit parade?
