💡 Did You Know?

This episode contains the infamous All About Eve performance of their single Martha's Harbour. Top of the Pops at this point had a rule that all artists mimed, but a technical fault meant that although the song could be heard to television viewers, the band's stage speakers were turned off meaning for the majority of the performance they are just sitting and smiling at the camera. The following week, the band were invited back and singer Julianne Regan chose to sing live; this was rare for an artist to do at the time.
