Re: Retro Week 2 - Only one non-repeat Countdown?

This Playlist is from last year, last January.

Re: Retro Week 2 - Only one non-repeat Countdown?

Is any latest Countdown episodes to be rescreened in Rage Goes Retro 2 tomorrow night?

Re: Retro Week 2 - Only one non-repeat Countdown?

That explains why it looks so familiar!

Re: Retro Week 2 - Only one non-repeat Countdown?

Still waiting on rage, they are really taking a LONG time to upload today!





Re: Retro Week 2 - Only one non-repeat Countdown?

I thought rage had really dropped the ball when I saw this, as I've just copied these episodes off my hard-drive to DVD a few weeks ago. Thankfully it's an old playlist. :)

Re: Retro Week 2 - Only one non-repeat Countdown?

To make up for jumping the gun. This recently went up but still no playlist:

For the second instalment you'll see classic clips from the 60s, the 70s, and the 80s with live appearances from Eurogliders, Eurythmics, Adam & The Ants, Skyhooks and more.

Join us for the second week of Rage Goes Retro on Saturday 9th January from 10:49-11:49am, returning for the night from 11:21pm on ABC.

Re: Retro Week 2 - Only one non-repeat Countdown?

Got a feeling there is going to be a July 1985 episode of Countdown in there, as I'm very sure that the Eurythmics performed "would I lie to you" in the countdown studio.

Really? I don't think Eurythmics ever performed in the Countdown studio?

I'm not sure either, just had the vague feeling that they had at least one countdown appearance and it being "Would I lie to you". Remember this is going off a memory from over 30 years ago, so maybe the live performance might of been on another show at the time.

Re: Retro Week 2 - Only one non-repeat Countdown?

I'm pretty sure it's just an interview with Annie & Dave. I've got a VHS-sourced copy of it.

Re: Retro Week 2 - Only one non-repeat Countdown?

So where does the 'Eurythmics live appearance' come into it? The blurb on the rage site says so...

"For the second instalment you'll see classic clips from the 60s, the 70s, and the 80s with live appearances from Eurogliders, Eurythmics, Adam & The Ants, Skyhooks and more"

I would have thought at least a TOTPs performance.

Good point. Maybe rage thought that the footage of Annie on stage in the "Would I Lie To You" video was 'live'.
