It’s a pity they’re miming but this is still bursting with fabulousness, not least of which is how cute PP Arnold looks.

How hep are these cats?

Wham, Bam, thank you, The Jam!

Revolver was a terrific show but it seems to be a bit forgotten now when talk turns to great music television of the past, probably because it was broadcast late at night (due to its “controversial” punk content) and only lasted for eight episodes. But me and my sister watched every one of them, it was brilliant stuff, especially Peter Cook taking the piss out of the bands and the audience.

Pretty good little beat combo this lot.

Last time I was in Brighton (many, many years ago) I was walking around with some mates when one of them said “Oh look, it’s the alley where Phil Daniels shagged Leslie Ash!” and there it was, the scene of Jimmy’s quick knee-trembler with Steph in Quadrophenia. We wandered down to take a look but, as there were no girls to hand, didn’t try to reenact the scene.

Apparently it’s quite the famous spot. There should be a plaque on the wall or something.

“We kind of fit into the electro-pop duo thing”

Paul Weller cracks a joke! Don’t see that too often.

If they took this picture now Paul Weller would be the old man, but who would be the young turk standing next to him?
