Top of the Pops: The Story of 1986
The Story of 1986
A look back at the year when Simply Red, the Housemartins, Sinitta, the Communards and Swing Out Sister hit the charts. It was a time that saw the advent of house music, the big bang in the money markets and political fatigue on the left. How did these real-world events make their mark on the nation's most popular show?
Top of the Pops: The Story of 1986 airs on BBC Two HD at 12:05 AM, Sunday 18 October. (Subtitles, repeat.)
