In 2011, U.K. TV channel BBC4 started rolling back time by 35 years and started

re-broadcasting the UK TV weekly music show “Top Of The Pops”. These shows were

re-broadcast in it’s full entirety with the presenters introducing the acts of the time. BBC4 (a digital channel) started repeating shows starting in 1976.

(Some bloody dreadful acts, so thank you PUNK music)

Unfortunately by the summer of the 1977 broadcasts (and, after the court allegation’s with under age sex with girls by the TOTP presenters Jimmy Saville and also another presenter Dave Lee Travis only a few months later) BBC4 did not re-broadcast those episodes with those presenters.
