Read the front page for the story, but can this be the real line up? I doubt it, but if so, I've died and gone to 70-80s-90s heaven.
Haddaway! Nathan Moore!! Mica Paris!!! Sybil!!!! Nick Heyward!!!!! Gloria Gaynor!!!!!! Junior!!!!!!! Princess!!!!!!!! Doctor & The Medics!!!!!!!!! Jaki Graham!!!!!!!!!! Howard Jones!!!!!!!!!!! 911!!!!!!!!!!!! Belinda Carlisle!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shakin' Stevens!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Carol Decker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Honeyz!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Limahl!!!!!!!!!!!!! Baccara!!!!!!!!!!!! Cutting Crew!!!!!!!!!!! Rozalla!!!!!!!!! Chesney Hawkes!!!!!!!! Kenny Thomas!!!!!!! Tiffany!!!!! Kelly Marie!! The Real Thing! Boy Meets Girl.
The exclamantion marks and PJ's famous "sense of humour" suggest no. But god I wish it was.

The ITV promotional stuff that they send to potential advertisers says that this show is 'most likely to appeal to: Young & Female
Methinks they're missing out a demographic...

I doubt it will appeal to young females, i'm 18 and have heard of about 2 names on that list. None of them interest me enough to want to watch the show. Now if they had had Steps, B*Witched, S Club then I would have watched. But 911, 911?! I really don't care about them!

Reason's to be excited about this ( irony aside ) :
Rozalla! Nathan " Honest Guv, I was only asking directions to this lady of the night. Honest ?! " Moore ! Belinda Carlisle! Bonkers performance (probably) by Doctor and The Medics! Crooner Kenny Thomas! ( i used to like him anyway ) ....and When she's "Good and Ready" - Sybil!
It may not be an original format by any means, but it could be quite good . Then again I did watch some of Reborn in the Usa , so that indicates my taste levels.
Btw who the funk is Baccara?

Well I'm young and it most definitely appeals to me! All my favourite acts on one show.....I'd be in heaven. Nathan Moore, Chesney, Nick Heyward, 911......oooooh can't wait for this. I've already been searching on how to get tickets for this. I'm guessing all the acts mentioned would be up for this as they all do the Butlins tours.....yippppeeee.

I'm young and I find this lineup exciting, but then I have come to terms with the fact that I'm a bit of an 80s reject. Can't wait to see Belinda Carlisle singing on TV- I could listen to her sing the phonebook!

Who is Howard Jones? His name keeps popping up but I can't work out who he is. I've tried his website but it's not much help. All I've learned is that there was once an album called The Wycombe Compilation full of artists from High Wycombe. I'll have to tell my best friend who lives there. It's so random. He seems to be still going and vaguely known in Norway and Italy.

Howard Jones was one of the self style 80s synth pioneers.
Just like a beddingfield today, in the 80s Howard came out with a string of cool hits all self written and produced with his collection of cool synths.
His sound was cutting edge for the time and he was always surrounded by big machines and things that bleep. Top man I say.
Look for his song 'what is love' and you'll see what I mean. Its a great song with some big sounds.
He is touring and still working so I dont know why hes on this.

Their lead singer had big hair and wore a top hat on Top Of The Pops. They've been releasing albums to a resounding silence for years now.

You can find out about Howard Jones at www.howardjones.comMy husband Nick Beggs plays bass for Howard, and will be playing with him on the night of the show. It rather amusing really, coz Nick was the founder member of Kajagoogoo..... and Limahl Kajagoogoo's lead singer is going to be on the same show!!! Are you still with me? If you want to find out about kajagoogoo, go to www.kajagoogoo.com

Not sure if 911 will be on the show now, Lee broke his leg recently playing footie, and had to have surgery to have a metal rod inserted, so he is unsure if he will be able to perform with Jim and Spike now ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/sad.png)
