Two programmes in one, manitas in work!

Juke Box Jury was the BBC show hosted by David Jacobs with four 'celebrity' panellists. They had a choice of either Hit or Miss, and in the event of a draw, some audience members had a hit/miss sign to hold up and that gave the casting votes.

Over on ITV it was Thank Your Lucky Stars, presented by Brian Matthews, where there was a spot for new releases with marks out of five, and the audience were invited to comment on them.

It was a TYLS audience member called Janice who came up with the immortal phrase, "(Oi wouldn't boi it meself, but) oi'll give it foive," and became a regular to say what she thought (including her 'catch phrase' as often as possible, of course).

That was about all the pop music we got on TV back then!
